Yep, I think being at the bottom of the list is equivalent to scooping the big win.

Darn it. I seem have to crept up the list overnight!
I'm going to enjoy being part of this challenge, I think!
Thanks for the good humour everyone! It makes a big difference.
I'm off to post a letter and then I need to try to work out whether I can afford to take a pay cut AND keep OPing some of my mortgage....:rotfl:0 -
Yeah, I should be much higher up that list. I mentioned in my original post that I was completing on a third house; that's now done, so the total mortgage load is:
219,559.21 of your finest pounds.
Which puts me... seventh? Figures will be updated in my sig as I go, but it'll be at least 10 years before I'm making any real headway...Debts (26.3% remaining) - CC/BARC: [strike]2058[/strike] 100.00 @0%; CC/MBNA: [strike]1877.75[/strike] 0.00; Loan/SLC: [strike]10000[/strike] 7901.84 @1.5%; Loan/Per: [strike]1500[/strike] 0.00; Loan/HX: [strike]15000[/strike] 0.00
Mortgages (94.7% remaining) - NW: [strike]92516.94[/strike] 87565.40 @3.19%; HBOS: [strike]65599.57[/strike] 59106.45 @4%, [strike]69251.57[/strike] 68589.97 @3.49%

Hi Tilly, at least you're bottom of the £300k+ mini-league?! (Sorry, the intention was not to rub it in any further!!)
All the best

Hi Twiddy, I am so aiming to get out of the £300k club, the view looks much better from the <£299k club I think.....
I will be updating mortgage figures after 28 November but won't achieve sub £300k sadly - oh well, off to make dinner for family and lodger. High finance one moment, scrubbing spuds the next.
Best wishes Tilly2004 £387k 29 years - MF March 2033:eek:

Wow - I am so impressed with your attitudes on clearing such a debt. It's uplifting to see you really hacking into your debts - and I wish you all well.Feb 2012 - onwards MF achieved
September 2016 - Back into clearing a mortgage - Was due to be paid off in 32 years in March 2047 -
April 2018 down to 28.00 months vs 30.04 months at normal payment.
Predicted mortgage clearing 03/2047 - now looking at 02/2045

Hi
Could I join too please. We've just bought a house that needs renovating so we have 2 mortgages totalling £120,000 (details in signature). Also have a loan for the renovation work which will need to be paid before any overpayments on mortgages to will be around for a while.0 -
eeek! i didn't realise people were including BTLs in this! very sadly, this would bump us up to the "top" of the league with a whopping £520,174 outstanding across BTL and residential. But perhaps I won't keep this figure in mind.... half a million pounds of mortgages...sounds like a lot eh?
I think i will concentrate on the target in hand which is £13,500 overpayment - only £12,500 to go!Paying down the mortgage:
At 1 October 2011: £226,000
Currently: £224,499
Aim: 85% LTV (£212,500)
Paid £1,500
Target remaining: 88.89%0 -
Hi Mel19632, no please join, that would push me down the list a bit ! I won't be able to undertake shalo_moo anytime soon, but am pushing to be <£300k by very early next year.
