I'm one year into my mortgage & have only been paying interest so far.
To summarise, my mortgage is for 220,000 & I have been paying 536 per month.
I got a summary from my bank & it actuallys shows that I now owe more than when I started (220,500).... How can this happen ?
My plans are to build a house on family land in the future (12-24 months) so I hope to sell the apartment during that period.
My question is what are the pros & cons of sticking to paying interest only for another year ?
Will the bank charge any penalties for switching to regular payments ?
Thanks in advance,
John
