This one's a little trickier!
PITI stands for:
• Principal – Pays down the loan balance.
• Interest – The cost of borrowing money.
• Taxes – Property taxes that may be included in the monthly payment.
• Insurance – Homeowners insurance, and sometimes other required insurance.
When people talk about a monthly mortgage payment, they're often referring to the full PITI payment, not just the principal and interest.
