    Hello all...

    I know we are 2/3 of the way through 2017 already but... Please can I join in with this MFW 2017 thread? I'm about to start a diary and plan to overpay my mortgage by £400 per month so potentially £2000 by the end of December 2017. My mortgage payment goes out 15th of the month so August still to go out.

    Thanks a million and good luck all...

    Welcome! You're #125.

    Good evening - I know that it is late in the year - but I would like to join the MFW.


    I drew down my mortgage last Thursday and completed the following day.


    My mortgage is £123k. As I have to buy all the various bits and pieces for the house, I am going to set myself a modest overpayment target of £1,200 for the remainder of the year.


    I am hoping that I will be able to clear more than this - but want to be reasonable to start off with.


    And I made my first overpayment today of £100, so already on my way.


    Thanks

    Congrats on the purchase! :) You're #126.

    I've made another £15 overpayment today after getting some cashback from Quidco to spend. Seems very small fry against the mortgage balance, but I guess that every little bit helps in the long run.
