IMHO: One would assume that paying the bond would enhance the value of the property by the amount of the paid bond. I don't think buyers view it that way. I didn't when I was searching for my TV home. If you are going to keep your home indefinitely (???) then it doesn't matter, but I believe that paying the bond is discounted in the sale more than the amount paid - in general. Also, one can make more than 6% in the market so there is a little "float" on the positive side if one is so inclined.
