2 year old thread, is the payment 2-weekly stoll relevant with current loan structure, in order to reduce principle? Heard that some types will treat advance as next installment.

still works the same.

Using the bi-weekly (2 week) payment on your installment will effectively pay your housing loan by an additional 1 month by end of the year.

Hello all Sifus,

So lets say if i took a loan of RM500k, with a bank interest rate of 4.45%

And i put RM400K of my own monnies into the flexi accont, does that mean that the 4.45% interest will only be based on RM100k?

Yes correct, you will only incur interest based on the remaining 100k @ 4.45 as you still owe this amount to the bank.

do i need to inform the bank?

or i just bank in my money into that account?

You need to inform the bank if you're using a semi flexi loan because the system sometimes can't differentiate if you're putting the extra for next month installment or for advance payment towards principle
