A bullet loan is a type of loan in which the whole principal amount is paid back at the end of the loan term rather than through periodic payments. These loans typically have a short to medium-term duration, usually between 5 to 10 years, and can pose significant risk if the borrower cannot refinance or repay the loan principal as per the agreement.
A term loan is a loan with a set maturity date, typically borrowed with little to no amortization of the principal balance, requiring a significant payment at the end of the term.
