Payment defaultThis results when you are unable or simply unwilling to meet your mortgage repayments. If you default on your payments, the lender is ultimately entitled to sell your home in order to recover the loan. Different lenders will have different policies on how long they give you before they start the legal proceedings to recover the loan. Many will have a separate schedule of charges which you will incur before they start proceedings.Payment default Similar MatchesPeriodic payment planPeriodic payment planAccumulation of capital in a mutual fund by making regular payments on a monthly or quarterly basis. Balance of payments surplusBalance of payments surplusA number summarizing the state of a country's international transactions, usually equal to the balance on current account plus the balance on capital account. This equals zero* and is uninformative under the modern definition of the latter, but with official reserve transactions excluded, or omitting also other volatile short-term capital-account transactions, it indicates the stress on a regime of pegged exchange rates. Repayment mortgageRepayment mortgageA mortgage where throughout the term, regular payments (usually monthly) are made to partly repay interest on the capital and to partly repay the capital itself (the amount of the loan).Initially the largest proportion of the repayments will be used to pay interest since the capital amount outstanding is at its highest value. Therefore over the initial years the capital will not reduce very much. However as the years proceed more and more of the monthly repayments will be applied to reducing the capital until towards the end of the term the large proportion will be paying off capital and a small proportion paying interest.In the event that interest rates rise then often the monthly repayments will rise accordingly. Alternatively, to keep the same monthly repayments the term will need to be extended. If interest rates fall then the reverse applies. It is usually a requirement of the lender (that is, a building society or bank) providing the mortgage that the borrower takes out life assurance so that repayment is made in the event of his/her death during the term. Mortgage payment protection insurance (MPPI)Mortgage payment protection insurance (MPPI)An MPPI policy pays your mortgage for you if you become unable to work for an extended period of time, as a result of redundancy, accident, sickness or disability. It should provide enough income to cover all your monthly mortgage expenses. If you have a repayment mortgage, this should be your capital and interest repayment and if you have an interest-only mortgage, the MPPI should cover your interest payment as well as your normal monthly contribution to the investment vehicle that will repay your loan.
