    Glossary: German mortgage terms explained

    Back to glossary

    The Tilgung is the part of a loan payment that actually reduces the debt, as opposed to interest.

    The higher the repayment, the faster the Restschuld falls and the less interest you pay in total. It is usually stated as an initial percentage of the loan amount per year.
