Balloon Payment

A balloon payment is a large, lump-sum payment that is required at the end of a loan term, typically following a period of smaller interest-only or partially amortized payments.

What is a Balloon Payment?

Unlike fully amortized loans, balloon loans do not fully pay down the principal over the term, leaving a substantial balance due at maturity.
