When you take out a mortgage on a home, you’ll generally have your regular payment automatically deducted from your account, to cover the entire amount. This can be deceiving, since your mortgage payment may consist of several components : the mortgage principal and interest, property taxes and mortgage life insurance. Let's take them one at a time.... Mortgage interest. Generally, mortgage interest costs are front-loaded, so that that interest comprises a much larger percentage of your regular mortgage payment at the beginning of the life of the mortgage than toward the end. 2, record 2, English, - mortgage%20interest
