for $180,000. You met with your local bank and you got approved for
a mortgage with the following terms: Interest is fixed at a rate of
4% p.a.; payments need to be made on a monthly basis, with the
first payment due one month after the purchase is finalized; the
bank requires you to make fixed and equal payments for each of the
60 months, after which the mortgage is fully paid off; the bank is
willing to finance 80% of your purchase.
