Mortgage or Personal Loan?

I thought we had addressed this years ago but it is worth repeating. Let's address this by taking a considerable look at this backed by numbers.

Should I finance my house with a mortgage or a personal loan? Most of the time, I am inclined to say please, by all means, use a mortgage.

Then again someone will say, I just want to be in and out within 5 to 10 years. A mortgage is a long-term commitment.

Personal loans are very costly (interest rate wise) compared to mortgages because they are unsecured while a mortgage is a secured loan.

In Botswana, we have seen the introduction of 10-year personal loans in recent years with up to P700 000 maximum loan amount. Some conservative lenders can only advance a personal loan, not more than your annual salary.

With a mortgage, one can qualify for a higher amount because the loan is spread over a long period. Up to a maximum of 30 years.

Because of the longevity of the mortgage, overall, one ends up paying more interest. However, this situation can be avoided by pushing to finish the mortgage earlier than the stipulated term. The repayment provided is only a minimum one can pay meaning you are at liberty to pay more towards your mortgage to reduce the interest cost.

That said, I believe numbers don't lie, and for me, numbers will always come to my rescue.

Let's say you want to buy a low-cost house priced at P700,000. Do you qualify for both a personal loan and a mortgage of the same amount?

ILLUSTRATION

Mortgage. Personal Loan
Loan Amount. 700,000. 700,000
Loan Term. 20years. 10years
Interest Rate. 7.56%. 11.01%
Deposit. 0%
Repayment. P5,664.86 P9,646.46
Total Interest. P659 566.81 P275,959.50

Note 1
If you can afford to pay P9,646.46 for a personal loan, the assumption is that you can pay an extra P3,981.60 under the mortgage to make total repayments equal to what you would be paid with a personal loan.

SAME MORTGAGE WITH EXTRA PAYMENT

Extra Payment. P3,981.6
Total Repayment. P9,646.46
Total Interest. P238,419.46
Interest Saving. P421,147.35
Number of payments. 98months/8years,2 months

Compare a mortgage with an extra payment to a personal loan.

You will finish one year earlier than you would have for a personal loan.

Pay less interest than you would have paid for a personal loan.

There you have it, take a mortgage, pay extra, finish earlier, save on interest.

The interest saved is the money that your financier would have made from you, you just denied them that.

Let's get the education as we prepare to benefit from Bonno housing Scheme.
