**Annuity Repayment:** The monthly installment is constant, but the ratio of principal and interest changes over time. This is the most common loan type.

**Linear Repayment:** The principal repayment is even, and interest decreases over time, so the monthly installment also decreases.

Loan Planning Tips

– A longer term means lower monthly payments but more interest
– It is worth comparing offers from multiple banks
– Don't forget additional costs (insurance, administration fees)
– Pay attention to the APR value, as it shows the total cost

Frequently Asked Questions

**What is the difference between principal and interest?**
The principal is the original loan amount, and the interest is the bank's fee for lending the money. The monthly installment is always principal + interest.

**Why is the APR important?**
The APR (Annual Percentage Rate) shows the total cost of the loan, including interest and other costs. This helps compare different loan offers.

**How does the interest rate affect repayment?**
A higher interest rate means a higher monthly installment and more interest. Therefore, it is important to choose a favorable interest rate.
