Hello forum,
I have been living in my own home for a few months now and am diligently paying off my loan (monthly €930.00). My loan has a fixed interest period of 15 years. So the fixed interest period ends in 2017. The remaining debt will then be approximately €120,000.
I am now wondering if it makes sense to simultaneously save monthly into a [Bausparer]. This would result in a savings amount of €150.00 * 180 months = €27,000 in [Bausparguthaben].
With 40% savings, I would have a [Bausparer] of €67,500, with which I would like to partially repay the remaining loan.
Is this sensible? That way I can at least secure the low interest rates on the €67,500?
Or is it better to set aside the €150 for special repayments?
I don't think that after 15 years, even with interest rate increases to 6-7%, the financing will falter. Sure, it would be tight, but not impossible.
How do you do it? Do you secure low interest rates for the end of the fixed interest period?
Thanks for the advice
Regards
Koala
