Podcast #50: Is This The Best Mortgage Ever....!?

August 21, 2017

Hey all, in this 50th episode of the Informed Decisions Financial Planning Podcast we will aim to share insights on the very best mortgage that you can get here in Ireland; whether you are aiming for your first mortgage or have a collection of them we hope to share ideas which will save you a small fortune over your life-time. We also have a short guest appearance from Seamus & Conn (future Informed Decisioners!!)....All we ask in return is to help us spread the word, share the article with the little icons at the bottom, check out the podcast, and in general just be a huge fan of our little site! Be delighted if you checked out our why.We shared insights a number of months ago in what still remains one of our most popular blogs in the area of over-paying one's mortgage and the impact that has on the number of years you will be lumbered with it and also the lump of interest you would have paid.Speaking of which, if I was to offer you ?38,000 of a saving over the next 20 years, and all you had to do to earn it was about 8 hours of work, and an initial outlay of ?1,000 to ?1,500 for solicitor fees......what would you do? Many of us might fall into the most irrational behavioural finance phenomenon and not be able to see past the cost of ?1,500, but on the face of it there surely is no doubt that we know it makes financial sense, right??Take a listen to find out what we are talking about this week!Thanks a mill.Paddy DelaneyQFA | RPA | APA | Qualified Coach
