The best type of loan that one can get is an interest only loan if they are not able to make large payments for a period of time. However, if one only pays the interest on the loan, the principal itself will never decrease leaving you in debt longer.

What are the key differences between an amortized loan and an interest-only loan?

The key difference between an amortized loan and an interest-only loan is how the payments are structured. In an amortized loan, each payment covers both the interest and a portion of the principal, gradually reducing the balance over time. In an interest-only loan, the borrower only pays the interest each month, with the full principal amount due at the end of the loan term.


What is an interest only mortgage in laymans terms?

It's a home loan where instead of paying principal plus interest each month, you pay only the interest. Example: You borrow $100,000 for five years. At the end of the five years, after making payments each month you will still owe $100,000 (because you've only paid the interest on the loan.) People get interest only loans so they can afford a bigger house -- the payments may be $500 per month(or even less) instead of $750. But it's really not the best idea because if you keep getting interest only loans, you never own the house. An interest-only loan may be a good idea in some situations, for example if one partner is in college and you expect to have higher income when they graduate. If possible, it's better to get a conventional loan on a less expensive house, or to save at least a modest down payment(for a first home.)
