Jan 3, 2023 at 6:32 comment added littleadv Many banks would not allow prepaying the mortgage for more than a couple of months.
Jan 2, 2023 at 22:06 comment added heretoinfinity What about the mortgage payment itself? I assume that it is better to pay this one in advance if the mortgage rate is higher than the savings rate?
Jan 2, 2023 at 20:57 comment added Bob Baerker AFAIK, insurance companies don't rebuild. They pay the claim and the owner decides whether to rebuild or not. I think that you'd lose some of your prepaid HOA fees because settlements don't occur overnight. For convenience, I used to pay my HOA fees three months in advance because interest rates were near zero. With rates higher now, it makes sense to pay monthly.

Jan 2, 2023 at 16:49 comment added Craig W Why would you want to do this? If you keep your emergency fund in a high-yield savings account or money market fund you could be earning close to 4% at the moment.
