I was just wondering what I am missing.
My friend told me about the person on the radio talking about saving thousands on your mortgage by paying twice a month instead of once a month.
I looked into it and set it up with boi to do this after a lot of phone calls and letters.
It came out then that the man said he made a mistake and took back everything he said.
I just wonder why he said this.
My mortgage interest rate was 3.1% on 260000 for 25 years, monthly payment of 1230 a month.
Now my payments are 595 twice a month at 3.1% on 260000 for 23 years monthly payment of 1190.
I have knocked 2 years payments of capital and interest of my mortgage and i am paying less than I was just because i rang boi on the back of what that man said.
I am also making up the differerence between the 1190 and the 1230(40 euro) and overpaying my mortgage each month. I am not sure how much time this will knock of my term but over 23 years its bound to help.
In my head I am getting a great deal but as I mentioned am I missing something and why is everybody not doing this.
Thanks in advance for any replys.
