If I take a 30 year loan and make the 15 year loan payment, my loan would be paid off at exactly 15 years.In actuality, the 15 year interest rate is pretty much always lower so the 30 year will always take longer to pay off, even if you make the 15 year payment because you'll be paying at a higher rate.The only way you could pay off the 30 year payment in 12 years is by making a much higher payment than the 15 year P&I or by getting a lower interest rate on the 30 year than the 15 year (which isn't impossible but exceedingly unlikely.I'm not sure where you heard this from, but it is fundamentally wrong.
