 Monthly vs. Biweekly Payments

 
 
 
  Which is better - monthly or biweekly payments?

A biweekly mortgage allows you to make a mortgage payment every 2 weeks resulting in 26 payments per year versus 12 monthly payments per year, or the equivalent of 13 monthly payments. The result is a considerable reduction in the term of the mortgage, as well as savings in total interest paid.

We have rounded these figures according to standard mathematical practices. For exact figures, please consult a broker or financial advisor.
