I'd like to join this challenge this year for the first time. Is my target meant to be just for the over payments or include the normal payment too? I am going to aim for £3600 in over payments.0

Going to try this again, hoping to remortgage to a MUCH better rate (2.19 instead of 5.19) so might actually make my target this year!
#48 again if that's ok, target of £5,000

Hi there.
Would love to join your thread if possible (especially seeing that it can be smaller amounts which is just ideal for me).
Rightio... between the mortgage and overpayments, I should pay off £6,493.20 so will aim for £6600. That doesn't seem masses over my overpayment but I tend to be a bit close to the wire normally.
If no-one else wants it, could I have number 8 please.
Failing that, just any even number (have a weird thing about odd numbers, sorry).
To summarise cause this is quite a big post.
Yes please, number 8 if possible, target £6600.
Thank you very very much.Mortgage: £0/£80,329.91
Savings: £0/£64000 -
£13000 for me please - might need to edit when I get the figure I can repay up to from the bank on Saturday.
Thanks for doing this again.Initial Mortgage January 2024 - £160,000
Initial Mortgage free date - January 2058
Mortgage as of 1st February 2024 - £159,134.98
Overpayments to date - £79.62
Current Mortgage free date - January 20580 -
Can I join.
Approx 55k left on our mortgage. 2.89% fixed till May 2016, I have a Lloyd's 5% account maturing then so will chuck a further 3k at the mortgage, I also have a campervan I'm selling in Spring so will take 2k out of that pot so at remortgage time I want to be under the 50k mark.
Additional over-payments will spur me on, as will regular updates.
Cheers
