2018 Mortgage-Free Wannabes

  • Hello, I want to be kept up to date, we’ve just got our first mortgage (woo ��) but we would love to be mortgage free by 35 which gives us 12 years �� were going to try and pay £200/month for the moment as we get married in May and buying this house has all but wiped our savings! After that we’re looking at saving £1000/month whilst over paying our mortgage by £200/month. We will then be moving again in ~ 4-5 years with hopefully £50,000 more to put towards our forever home.
  • Hey Pawlala,

    No. 171 with an overpayment of £1765.29 for November.

    Thanks again,

    Waiting for bills to go out so I know how much is leftover

    Impatient for the November overpayment!

    Well done everyone, think of all that interest you will not be paying out to the banks.

  • Had a look at our full spreadsheet (thanks Pawlala and Hiddenshadow for all your hard work on this) - amazing to see how much has been paid by us all together and the amount of interest we will have saved.

    Good luck everyone.

    No 70 reporting an OP for November of £500, that is my target reached :D I intend to OP the same next month so I can stay on target for MFiT but at least if money is needed for Christmas I can use that.
