THE MORTGAGE PROFESSOR:

Know how mortgage amortization works BY JACK GUTTENTAG  THE MORTGAGE PROFESSOR

Recently, I have been getting a lot of mail from mortgage borrowers asking about amortization. Most are considering whether to pay down their loan balance more rapidly and have suddenly realized that they don’t know how best to do that, or even whether it is a good idea because they never fully grasped how mortgage amortization works. This article explains the essentials of amortization, and why in today’s market it is a good idea for most borrowers to speed up the process — if they can. FULLY AMORTIZING PAYMENT Almost all mortgages today have fully amortizing payments. This is a payment which, if maintained unchanged through the remaining life of the loan at the then-existing interest rate, will pay off the loan over its remaining life. The payment has two components: the interest due the lender and the principal deducted from the balance. The interest portion is calculated as the amount due the lender based on the interest rate and the loan balance. The principal portion is what remains. AN EXAMPLE OF THE AMORTIZATION PROCESS The loan is for $100,000 at 4 percent for 30 years. The fully amortizing payment is $477.42. To obtain the interest due the lender in month 1, you multiply the balance of $100,000 times the annual interest rate of .04 and divide by 12 to get $333.33. The principal payment is the residual, what remains of the payment after paying the interest. Subtracting $333.33 from $477.42 gives $144.09 as the principal. Turning to month 2, the new balance is the old balance less the principal payment in month 1, or $99,

855.91. The interest due in month 2 is calculated in the same way as in month 1, but since it uses the new lower balance, it is $.48 lower at $332.85. That makes the principal payment in month 2 $.48 higher at $144.57. The process repeats each month, with the portion of the payment allocated to interest gradually declining and the portion allocated to principal gradually rising. ADDITIONS TO THE MONTHLY PAYMENT One simple way to accelerate the payoff process is to add some amount to the payment. 100 percent of such extra payments become principal. For example, if the payment in my example was increased by just $10 a month, the loan would pay off 13 months early. If the payment was increased by $100 a month, the loan would pay off 101 months early. I derived these numbers from calculator 2a on my website. Such additions to the payment are savings that yield a return equal to the mortgage rate. The mortgage borrower in my example earns 4 percent. If the $10 extra a month was deposited in a savings deposit, the return today would be 1 percent or less. That is why paying down the loan balance is a good idea. COMMUNICATING YOUR DECISION TO THE LENDER My mail from borrowers suggests that some are concerned that lenders will grab a piece of any extra payment as interest. This is nonsense, the interest payment due the lender is contractually defined in the note, and cannot be increased. I tell some borrowers that if it makes them feel better, they can include a note with their payment that the extra amount is to be credited to principal. But that is

not necessary. OCCASIONAL LARGER PAYMENTS If you hit the jackpot for $10,000 and use it to pay down your loan balance, you are again making an investment that yields the mortgage rate. There are no other investments available in the market that carry a risk-free return as high. I have found that some borrowers contemplating a large payment to principal worry about when they must deliver the payment to the lender in order to receive credit in the current month, as opposed to the following month. Lender policies differ in that regard, and it is worth a phone call to find out what the policy is. A larger worry is that the lender won’t give them credit “until the end,” meaning until the loan balance has been paid down to the point where it equals the extra payment. This is nonsense, a lender doing this would be committing larceny, yet it keeps popping up in my mail. MORTGAGE AMORTIZATION TOOLS Readers can develop an actual amortization schedule using one of my calculators. For straight amortization without extra payments, use my calculator 8a, Amortization Schedule Including Tax Savings. To see how amortization is impacted by extra payments of any type, use 2a, Mortgage Payoff Calculator: Extra Monthly Payments. If you make extra payments and want to maintain a permanent record of your loan, download one of my spreadsheets, Extra Payments on Monthly Payment Fixed-Rate Mortgages or Extra Payments on ARMs. The spreadsheets can be transferred to the hard drive of your computer. 

4 common job candidate weaknesses — and how to put a positive spin on them BY CATHERINE CONLAN  MONSTER.COM

Everybody has a weakness of some sort — the challenge comes when that weakness interferes with your job search. Here are four common job candidate weaknesses and what you can do to mitigate them. LITTLE EXPERIENCE “A top weakness we see in applicants is too little experience in a field,” says Michelle Burke, marketing supervisor for

WyckWyre. But if you have little to no experience for a position, highlight your skills and traits that show you can learn quickly. “Inexperience can be an advantage because you can always train skills, just not personality,” Burke says. WORK HISTORY GAP This weakness can be a little more difficult to manage, because you have

to work on it as soon as the gap begins because of a layoff or resignation. William Gutches, engagement quality assurance representative at Symbiosis Consulting, recommends volunteering and taking classes to boost your skills as ways to fill empty time on your résumé. JOB HOPPING While both employers and employees

don’t expect rookie-to-retirement work with one employer, hopping jobs too quickly can make you look like you’re not willing to commit. Gutches recommends presenting it as a focus on building a strong and deep skill set in a difficult area. Ciara Pressler of the Pressler Collaborative recommends taking a page from freelancers and highlighting the common themes of your work.

A WEAK MATCH If you find a dream opportunity with your ideal employer, but feel like your skills just aren’t the right fit, give it a try anyway, Pressler says, while focusing on what you can do to make it work. “Rather than assume you don’t fit perfectly into what they’re looking for, build a case as to why you are the ideal candidate to solve their problem.” she says. 
