What is an example of a bullet loan?

A bullet loan serves as an example of a unique financial arrangement. Picture this: a borrower secures a hefty $200,000 bullet loan with a 15-year term. Here’s the catch—it necessitates interest payments only during this duration. Upon the term’s conclusion, the borrower faces a significant task: settling the entire principal of $200,000 in one lump sum.

Such loans typically entice those seeking manageable monthly payments in the interim. This setup can offer flexibility in financial planning for individuals or businesses. However, it’s crucial to note the financial commitment awaiting at the term’s end. This contrasts with conventional loans where borrowers incrementally reduce both principal and interest over time.

For instance, a $200,000 bullet loan over 15 years with interest-only payments may seem appealing initially. Yet, the final bill of $200,000 due upon term expiry is substantial. This approach necessitates strategic financial preparation to manage the lump-sum repayment effectively.

(Response: An example of a bullet loan is a $200,000 loan with a 15-year term that requires only interest payments, with the entire $200,000 principal due at the end of the term.)
