Prepayment versus foreclosure

Prepayment usually means paying extra toward principal while the loan remains active. Foreclosure means paying the full outstanding amount and closing the loan.

What to check before foreclosure

Check outstanding principal, accrued interest, foreclosure letter requirements, charges, and whether the lender requires branch processing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is foreclosure always better than part prepayment?

Not always. Foreclosure saves interest but uses a large corpus. Part prepayment can balance savings with liquidity.

Are foreclosure charges allowed on home loans?

Rules differ by loan type and rate type. Individual floating-rate home loans generally have more borrower-friendly prepayment rules.
