Attached versus non-attached mortgage: what changes along the way
Explanation of linking the fund to the index, nominal certainty, initial interest rate and the real cost of mortgage routes.
short
In an index-linked track, the fund is updated according to the relevant index, so even after payments it may decrease slowly and even increase in certain periods. In a non-linked route, the principal does not change due to the index, but the initial interest rate may be higher. The correct comparison examines inflation, flow and total cost scenarios.
