You can pay off your bond years ahead of time and save thousands of rands in interest payments. Redeeming your
bond early and paying less is easy. All you have to know is how the system works and how to beat it.
When interest rates drop, don’t be tempted to reduce your monthly payments – continue making payments at the higher level. Try to repay as much as you can when interest rates are low to achieve even higher savings.
If you’re an endowment bond holder, you should review your policy and investment performance at regular intervals to be sure that it keeps pace with the amount outstanding on the bond. Also, re-arrange your policy to ensure it matures at the same time as the amended repayment date for your bond.
