What is a Mortgage

A mortgage is a type of loan used to purchase a home or property. When you take a mortgage, you borrow money from a bank or lender and agree to repay it over a set period, usually 15 to 30 years, through monthly payments. These payments typically cover both the principal (the amount borrowed) and the interest (the cost of borrowing).

Mortgages are essential for most homebuyers because they allow you to buy a house without paying the full price upfront.
