A balloon mortgage can be an excellent option for many home buyers. A balloon mortgage is usually rather short, with a term of five to seven years, but the payment is based on a term of 30 years. They often have a lower interest rate, and can be easier to qualify for than a traditional 30 year fixed mortgage. There is, however, a risk to consider. At the end of your loan term you will need to pay off your outstanding balance. This usually means you must refinance, sell your home or convert the balloon mortgage to a traditional mortgage at the current interest rates.
Definitions
- Mortgage amount
- Original or expected balance for your mortgage.
- Interest rate
- Annual interest rate for this mortgage.
- Term in years
- The number of years over which you will repay this loan. The most common balloon mortgage terms are 5 years and 7 years. After the mortgage term is complete, you will then need to refinance or pay off the remaining balance.
- Monthly payment
- Monthly principal and interest payment (PI). The monthly payment is calculated using a 30 year term.
- Total payments
- Total of all monthly payments over the term of the balloon mortgage. This total payment amount assumes that there are no prepayments of principal.
- Total interest
- Total of all interest paid over the term of the balloon mortgage. This total interest amount assumes that there are no prepayments of principal.
- Prepayment type
- The frequency of prepayment. The options are: none, monthly, yearly, and one-time payment.
- Prepayment amount
- Amount that will be prepaid on your mortgage. This amount will be applied to the mortgage principal balance, based on the prepayment type.
- Start with payment
- This is the payment number that your prepayments will begin with. For a one time payment, this is the payment number that the single prepayment will be included in. All prepayments of principal are assumed to be received by your lender in time to be included in the following month's interest calculation.
- Savings
- Total amount of interest you will save by prepaying your mortgage.

We have been Realtors for over 20 years; Eric got his licenses in 1986, and Hope got her licenses in 1988. We were married in 1997 and have worked as a team with RE/MAX Realty Services from 1997-11/2008.
We wanted to offer more personal service to our clients and moved to RealtyForce in Bethesda in the beginning of November 2008. We have lived in Chevy Chase for just about 10 years and we are your neighborhood Realtors. With a smaller company, we have an advantage of being able to pass on some of the savings directly to the client. For example, we do not charge any extra administrative fees that many larger companies charge.
We are licensed in all 3 jurisdications DC/MD/VA. Hope has her Graduate Realtor Institute (GRI) designation and both of us have our Certified Residential Specialist (CRS) designations. We cover a large geographic area, since we were individual Realtors first for 9+ years before we were married. One of us is always available to help you with any of your Real Estate needs. We have a large list of contacts such as home improvement contractors, lending institutions, home inspectors, and network with many buyers, sellers and Realtors. Hope and Eric are graduates of the University of Maryland. Our enthusiasm, energy and knowledge of Real Estate assure you that you are working with the right Realtors.
