Fully Amortized Loans Vocab
- Amortization= payment or debt in equal payments over loan term
- Debt Service = payment of both principal and interest
- Principal = amount borrowed (debt)
Fully Amortized Loans
loans that are completely paid off when last payment is made
- also known as Direct Reduction Loans
- Debt service pays both principal and interest
PITI Payment
Principal Interest Taxes and Insurance (Home Owners Insurance)
How do fully amortized loans work?
Every month a portion goes to principal and interest but the payment remains the same
Amount going toward principal & interest changes over the life of the loan
- recalculated monthly
- only 12 days in a calender year for calculation
With each payment made, amount of money going toward principal increases, while the amount going toward increase decreases
Final Payoff = discharge document that shows that the lender has no claims to the collaterl for the debt because it was paid in full
Principal payments are always residual
Difference between total payment & interest due
Math using the amortization table
Formula: (loan amount/1000) x PI = monthly payment
to calculate the payments on an amortized loan the formula is the first half of PITI. payments on a $200,000 loan at 5% interests amortized over 30 years would have a PI of $5.37 and be calculated as (200,000/1000)*5.37PI = $1,074
the payments of Principle, Interest, Taxes, and Insurance
a loan can either be a fixed rate or adjustable rate
fixed rate
interest rate doesn’t change over the life of the loan
Adjustable Rate
Interest rate is usually lower in the beginning
- Teaser or discounted rate
* Interest rate adjusts based on prime rate
* payment caps
- if increase is higher than cap, bank will carry it over to next rate increase
Balloon Loans
- Amortization period is longer than pay period
- Balloon = unpaid principal at the end of the term
