Part-Pay or Foreclose? Unlocking Loan Savings with Smart Interest Math
- •Borrowers with surplus cash face a dilemma: part-payment or foreclosure.
- •Foreclosure stops interest completely but can incur significant charges and deplete liquidity.
- •Part-payment reduces principal, recalculates interest, and offers flexibility with shorter tenure or lower EMIs.
- •Early part-payments on long-tenure loans like home loans can save substantial interest without heavy penalties.
- •The best option depends on loan type, timing, penalties, and personal cash flow comfort.
Why It Matters: Choose between part-payment and foreclosure based on loan type, charges, and liquidity needs for optimal savings.
