Mortgage Payment Bonus

Gary North

Sept. 28, 2009

Some banks offer a bonus to customers who have their mortgages issued by the bank. If the customer sets up a special mortgage-payment account, the bank offers a bonus. My bank offers $250.

The account automatically deducts the mortgage payment. This reduces the likelihood that the debtor misses a payment. This is turn reduces the paperwork associated with correcting the account.

I recommend that you find out if your mortgage-holder offers a bonus like this.

Of course, if you live in Kansas, you may not owe the mortgage-holder anything any longer. Check with your lawyer. For details, click here:
