Compare Repayment Methods

Products are ordered left to right from the lowest total interest to the highest. If you can spare the room, the products on the left are better; if you can't afford to repay principal right away, consider the ones on the right.

Interest decreases over time

What is Equal Principal Repayment?

You repay the same amount of principal every month, so the interest, calculated on the remaining balance, keeps shrinking.

Pros

Lowest total interest of all methods, and the burden eases over time, making it the most economical choice.

Cons

Initial payments are noticeably higher than other products.

Principal + interest stays equal

What is Equal Principal & Interest Repayment?

The monthly payment, principal plus interest combined, stays the same throughout the loan, though the mix shifts over time.

Pros

Easy to manage since the monthly payment never changes, and you pay less interest than a bullet repayment.

Cons

Repaying the balance early doesn't save much, since a large share of the principal is left for later.

Interest-only for a set period

What is a Grace Period (then Equal P&I)?

You pay interest only for an initial period, then switch to Equal Principal & Interest for the rest of the term.

Pros

The lightest burden early on, and still less interest overall than a bullet repayment.

Cons

You'll pay more interest overall than Equal Principal or Equal Principal & Interest.

Interest only until the final payment

What is a Bullet (Maturity) Repayment?

You pay only interest every month, then repay the entire principal in one lump sum at maturity.

Pros

The lowest possible monthly burden of any method, right up until maturity.

Cons

You pay the most interest overall, and the lump sum due at maturity can be a heavy burden.
