Hi getmore4less
How big is the mortgage what term, without those no one can say. Approximately £190k at 30 years
max over payment without penalty -10% of mortgage or a maximum of £500 a month
Long term how much can you overpay is it a new build how secure the jobs, any pay rises due. We plan on overpaying by £200 per month. It is not a new build. Jobs relatively secure and yes regular pay rises at approximately 3.5%.
remortgageing might be an issue. We hope to build some equity from the overpayments0 -
