MONEY MOVE OF THE WEEK

LOOK INTO RECASTING YOUR MORTGAGE.

Some lenders offer free recasting of your mortgage once you’ve paid down a certain amount of additional principal on the loan. This means they recalculate (or recast) your payments using the lower loan balance.

For example, if you have a $150,000 mortgage balance and pay down an extra $20,000 in principal, your payments after recasting are now based on a mortgage of $130,000. This allows your total monthly payment to go down. Not hating that.

If you have a 30-year mortgage, your mortgage is amortized over 30 years. Your payments stay the same each month but what the payments go toward changes over time. At first, your payments are more interest than principal because your loan is at its highest balance. Over time, as you pay down your principal, the payments go more and more toward paying down the loan balance than interest.

HOLIDAY TIPPING GUIDE.

During the holidays I have multiple exchanges with friends about holiday tipping and gifts. What’s generous? What’s typical? How much is this going to cost?

It can be difficult to know how much to give. This holiday tipping guide from Emily Post is filled with really helpful guidelines. You know I love how she talks about making it all work within our budgets.

I also loved this one that's specific to NYC. Reading through it reminded me of people I might have forgotten to include in my holiday budget.
