Failing to make a mortgage payment on time can lead to late fees and negatively impact your credit score. If the payment is more than 15 days late, you’ll incur a late fee. After 30 days, the missed payment is reported to credit bureaus, which can lower your credit score and potentially lead to further financial consequences.
