    This week's update has been done - great overpayments already in June - well done all!

    In terms of what is to be classed as overpayments. Personally, I consider it anything over and above your regular mortgage payment. For repayment mortgages that's the amount the bank and building society say you must pay each month. For interest only it would be any payments over and above your interest payment. Each to their own though. :)

    Hello JCL,

    Thanks for the clarification on what is classed as an overpayment.

    Based on your clarification, I need to reset my figures please.

    I would like an overall annual target of £12k, £1k per month. Not sure if I will manage it, but that's what a challenge is for, trying to achieve something you feel may be difficult.

    So overpayments so far this year are

    January £700
    February £900
    March £1100
    April £1100
    May £1000

    Thanks, and sorry for the confusion.

    Tx
    Still striving to be mortgage free before I get to a point I can't enjoy it.

    Owed at the end of -
    02/19 - £78,400. 04/19 - £85,000. 05/19 - £83,300. 06/19 - £78,900.
    07/19 - £77,500. 08/19 - £76,000.

    Please may I join

    Mortgage at its worsted £60,000 1999.
    Virtually paid off (£12) in July 2009 but new I was moving and wanted to keep the current mortgage. Tracks Bank of England plus 0.49% with a savings pot that offsets the interest.
    New mortgage £30,000 July 2009.

    Current mortgage £ 23284.71 int 0.99%
    Savings pot £ 17384.71 int 0.99%
    Diff £5900.00

    Current plan to withdraw £17000 to put in 123 account earning 3 % less tax int and earn cashback on mortgage payment.

    My aim is to then over pay mortgage and by 31/12/14 to have a savings pot minimum £ 5900 so the combination of 123 and pot is greater then mortgage.

    I have 7 pay days to achieve this.
    £118 of capital
    £19 interest
    £843 over pay
    Total £981 per month.

    I have spent last couple of weeks overhauling finances using MSE and should be able to achieve from monthly pay £ 681 leaving £300 short. I have joined 1% challenge! Earn £5 a day to try and met this shortfall.

    Thank you all at MSE :money:
    From 6/6/14

    #12 reporting in with £350 for June, once again there should be a bit more in a week or two :)

    Another £250 in today, so £600 for June please - that's everything this month :)

    Almost at the £170k barrier, had hoped to to break it this month but not to be - next month it is then, onwards and downwards :D
