Pay off Mortgage Early or Take advantage of low interest rate and
Hi All!
I'm curious to know people's opinion on this situation. I just closed on a duplex ($166,500) in ohio that rents for $1960 (section 8). I have a 30 year fixed mortgage at 4.87% , loan balance $125,000. I'm reading that if I make bi-weekly payments, I can pay off the mortgage faster and avoid paying more interest. However, this is also my first investment property in which I continue to grow with. Would you be more concerned with paying off the house early or continuing to leverage?
