What are balloon payments?

A balloon payment, or residual value payment, is a lump sum payable at the end of your caravan loan term. If you choose to utilise a considerable balloon payment, your monthly repayment throughout the life of the caravan loan may be lower. Balloon payments are usually available for caravans meeting certain criteria, but some lenders may not offer a balloon payment as an option.
