How borrowing works locally

A longer amortisation lowers each payment and raises the total interest paid over the life of the loan.

A prepayment privilege allows a borrower to pay more than the scheduled amount, sometimes with a charge attached. A secured product gives the lender a claim on a named asset, which is why its price is usually lower than an unsecured equivalent.
