Rich Girl Roundup: Is the 15-Year Mortgage Dead? (And Is It Even Worth Doing?)

Rich Girl Roundup: Is the 15-Year Mortgage Dead? (And Is It Even Worth Doing?)

We ran the numbers to compare the 15- and 30-year options.

Rich Guy Gavin asks, "Is the 15-year mortgage worth it?" Plus, given how few people can afford them nowadays, Katie and Henah chat through if the 15-year mortgage is dead. We run the numbers, the factors to consider, and some workarounds to make the 30-year mortgage more appealing.

Welcome back to #RichGirlRoundup, Money with Katie's weekly segment where Katie and MWK's Executive Producer Henah answer your burning money questions. Each month, we'll put out a call for questions on her Instagram (@moneywithkatie). New episodes every week.

Reminder: This is not financial advice; we are not certified financial professionals—please do your own due diligence.
