Ask HTM - Recasting to Lower Your Mortgage Payment, A Solar Panel Conundrum, & Forfeiting I Bond Interest #568

Dela

We’re kicking off the week by answering listener questions! And if you have a question that you’d like for us to answer on the show, we’d love for you to submit your own via HowToMoney.com/ask , send us your voice memo. Regardless of how random or bizarre you might think it is, we want to hear it!

 

1 - Is it best to recast a mortgage or should I just pay a lump-sum and be done with the mortgage a bit sooner?

2 - Frugal or cheap?! Repurchasing a board game online after it dropped in price, and having to drive in order to return the original.

3 - What interest am I forfeiting if I pull money out of my I bonds early?

4 - When buying solar, am I just exchanging a loan payment for my monthly electricity bill?

5 - I’d like to be a long-distance landlord- is that a wise move and what else should I keep in mind?
