How a 30/15 Loan Works

Our 30/15 mortgage loans are a type of balloon loan, offering predictable monthly payments now with flexibility later.

With this structure, your payments are based on a 30-year amortization schedule. The difference is that the full remaining balance is due after 15 years, which is the balloon.

At the 15-year mark, most borrowers choose one of the following options:

  • Refinance the loan
  • Pay off the remaining balance
  • Sell the property and use the proceeds to pay it off


Frequently Asked Questions

+ What is the difference between a second home and an investment property?
A second home is used by you or your family as a part-time residence and is typically not rented for income. An investment property is purchased with the intent to rent it out and generate revenue.
+ What is a balloon payment, and when is it due?
With a 30/15 structure, the remaining balance is due after 15 years. Until then, payments follow a 30-year schedule.
+ What happens when the 15-year term ends?
Most borrowers refinance, pay off the balance or sell the property and use proceeds to satisfy the loan.
+ Can I pay off the loan early?
Yes. There are no prepayment penalties, allowing extra payments or payoff before the 15-year mark.
