Common Questions
As a rough guide: a $100,000 loan at 7% over 5 years with no balloon is approximately $1,980 per month. A 20% balloon reduces this to around $1,640. Your broker will provide exact figures based on your actual rate.
A balloon is a lump sum due at end of term. It reduces your monthly repayments during the loan — you're effectively financing less over the term. At maturity you pay it, refinance it, or sell the trailer.
A longer term reduces monthly repayments but increases total interest paid. A shorter term costs more per month but less overall. Your broker can model both options for your specific situation.
