If i have an £80,000 mortgage over 25 yrs at approx 5.99 percent, and i overpaid £500 every month, how much would the direct debit go down by every month?

Is there a mortgage overpayment calculator specifically for reducing the monthly payment rather than the term?0
-
No problems, there are a few iphone apps / internet sites that can do it for you. I have a spreadsheet that does it for me, ill link you shortly.0

Thats ok, after 6 years, (my mortgage starts at £505 a month) what will the monthly dd be? can you work that out?0

Based on 5.99% rate for 25 yr term
1st payment of £505 + £500 O/P (MAR 2011)
6 yrs later it would be
£100.28 + 500 O/P = £600.28 (MAR 2017) +
That is based on over paying by 500 per month every month too.0 -
Thats good, better than i thought.!! Thank you very much.!0
