In a few months, I will buy an apartment. I didn’t want to leave the money in an account where inflation would eat away at it, but I also didn’t want to risk fluctuations in the markets.

Investing vs. mortgage
Thinking about making an extra mortgage payment? It might be better to invest.
Many believe, that paying off the mortgage prematurely is the best way you can use the money. This way, they can save on interest, they would have to normally pay. However, when we compare the average yields from investing and the saved interest on mortgage, investing is the advantageous option in most cases. For a more detailed explanation and concrete numbers, read this blog.
Furthermore, a big advantage of investing is that your wealth is not locked in a particular piece of real-estate, but instead, remains flexible. You may always withdraw a particular amount and use it according to your needs. Use the accumulated wealth to pay off the mortgage only if it becomes advantageous. Moreover, Finax takes care of everything for you - including optimization, fund choice and taxes. You just look at your wealth growing!
Why not start with a consumer loan
A consumer loan could end up being more expensive than you think. Investing is a healthier way.
Are you interested in a new car, household equipment, or another large expense? Many people opt for a consumer loan, which is often expensive, unfavorable, and creates financial pressure. A sensible alternative is to start investing ahead of time. Even a small monthly amount can, thanks to compound interest, give you enough funds in a few years. Plus, with Finax, you have control over your investments without needing to understand the complex world of investing.

Financing a real estate purchase
In recent years, the National Bank of Slovakia has taken several measures in order to mitigate the risks associated with the rapid growth of Slovak household indebtedness. Easily available 100% mortgages are a thing of the past. If you want to live on your own today, in addition to rising real estate prices, you also have to deal with several banks’ requirements.
As a Property Ages, so Does Its Return
The option of simple and cheap mortgage financing raises the attractiveness of investment properties. The use of credit (leverage) increases the return on funds invested in the property. Advantageous mortgages are among the reasons why investments in "bricks" enjoy great popularity in Slovakia. However, the return on a leveraged investment property falls sharply as the principal of the loan decreases.
Buying or renting - what is more worthwhile?
Securing a housing is one of the largest budget items for most people. If you are not one of the lucky ones who have acquired their own housing almost for free during the housing fund privatization in the 90s or by inheritance, you basically have two options – housing in a rental or “in your own”, i.e. with the burden of a mortgage. But what is more favourable? Is it better to be indebted for decades or to make use of the flexibility and carelessness a life in a rental has to offer?
