If you pay your home off faster than the note, you will pay less interest. The interest will accumulate at the same rate (your rate was set when you signed your note), but you will pay less money towards interest in the end. If you pay your house off in 15 years rather than 30, you will save 15 years worth of interest.

Why aren't the payments for a 15-year mortgage twice the payments for a 30-year mortgage at the same rate?

With the 15 year term, because you will pay the loan off much quicker, you will not pay nearly as much interest. If you take a look at a mortgage calculator, and change the term back and forth from 15 years to 30 years, you will see the change in interest paid.

What are the mortgage payments on a 150000 house?

It depends on several factors besides the loan amount. Primarily the interest rate and loan term(length of the loan), but a mortgage payment can include other items including escrow payments for property tax and insurance and possibly PMI. To keep it simple though, a 150,000 mortgage at 4.5% for 30 years would be $760.03 for your principal and interest payment. If you could afford to do a 15 year loan, at the same interest rate, the monthly payment would be $1147.49 and you would save nearly $70,000 in interest.

Why do we have interest groups in Texas?

Interest groups exist nationwide, in nearly all countries. These groups look out for the interests of big corporations and companies, primarily. They may say they operate for employee interests, but it's much bigger than common folks. In medical areas, interest groups fight to keep medical reimbursements (payments) at a profitable level or to keep or get more research monies. All these do trickle down to common folks, but still, the interest group is more interested in the macro level of economics rather than the micro level that affects ordinary citizens.


Should a mortgage of 150K at 6 percent be paid off with 150K cash from a 401K at retirement?

interest rates on borrowed money such as loans and mortgages is nearly always higher than the interest you gain on any savings. You'd have to check what interest you could get on investing the 150k but paying off the mortgage is likely to be your best option - unless you want to spend the money on something else in the short term, but remember you still need to have te funds available to pay the monthly payments on the mortgage.
