Anatomy of a Direct Reduction Mortgage

Direct Reduction Mortgage Analysis

Direct Reduction Mortgage: A mortgage that requires equal payments of a fixed amount for each period that includes both principal (loan recapture) and interest. Payments are credited first against interest on the declining principal balance, so the amount of money credited to principal gradually increases, while that portion credited to interest gradually decreases.
