    Haha, not even into the first week of the new year, and we already have 10 pages of comments for this thread :)

    No 127 reporting in. Standard OP of £100 has been made, plus £100 bit extra - couldn't resist an early start :)

  • Number 31 with first OP of £100 which is our standard OP on our DD. Might be a bit slow for the first few months of the year as I am changing job and there will be a gap in pay - half pay Jan and Feb so not ideal for overpaying!

    Lots of income upping to be done I think :)
  • Small overpayment to start off the new year with:

    £5.92!
    Mortgage 1: May 2012 £90,000 April 2020: £47,000
    Mortgage 2: £270,000😱 Jan 2019 £253,000 April 2020

    I'll sign up as well :)

    Mortgage began on the 1st January 2014. 30 Year Term, borrowed £114,000 at a 95% LTV on our property valued at £120,000. Two Year Fixed Term at 5.59% (payments of £650.78) followed by variable rate of 3.99% (estimated payments £548.51).

    I've an ambitious, yet hopefully achievable, plan to have the mortgage paid off within 15 years. Plan to overpay a total of £4,364.43 this year.

    Already made one overpayment of £122.33 with the 1st Jan payment.
