1. It's a lump sum
2. Did the lender explain why paying the same amount off of two mortgages with the same interest rate results in you saving different amounts of money?
3. Normally I'd say pay it off the one with the higher interest rate, but you say they are both the same.
4. If the amount you say you will save each month is correct then pay it off the first one but double check the figures because they don't make sense to me. I don't think the endowment makes any difference, you'll get the same money from it when it matures.loose does not rhyme with choose but lose does and is the word you meant to write.0 -

Then I would choose no 2 mortgage.
Use the savings made to invest elsewhere or increase your no 1 mortgage.0
