Overpayment Calculator

Options
I know there's an overpayment calculator thread on here, however. I tried to use the MSE one a couple of days ago and it didn't seem to be working.

I'm just wondering if any of you lovely birds can point me in the direction of a good (simple) calculator to use that will tell me how much extra we need to pay each month to reduce our mortgage term from.

We've just had our annual mortgage satement through and it would be fantastic to reduce the mortgage term from 14 years 10 months to 10 years, 8 months.

Life hasn't always gone according to what I thought so don't normally do long term plans but the thought of paying off in around 10 years is stuck in my brain now...

Cheers, Birdy

    This is quite a good quick Calculator with easy to view options
    http:/www.drcalculator.com/mortgage/uk/ just amend all the options to suit your particular circumstance
    You could always make your own on an Excel document which is what many members have done.

    Just google 'mortgage calculator excel' or something along those lines.

    It's OK, I've just found the sticky at the top of the page. Can't believe I missed it! Silly Cow, will open my eyes more.
