Mortgage free advice please

Hi all

I'm new to this so I apologise if something similar has been asked.

We have 8 years and 10 months left but I ideally want our mortgage paid off in 5 years. We owe £94,100, we currently pay £961 a month. Is it possible to get our mortgage paid off 3 years 10 months earlier?

Thank you

    All depends on your income and expenditure. Can you afford to overpay your mortgage?

    Would need to post some figures and stats, to see if achievable.

    Mortgage interest rate - 1.75% ??


    If you overpaid by £679 a month - it is do-able. Rough figures as do not know your interest rate and outgoings along with income.
    Always have 00.00 at the end of your mortgage and one day it will all be 0's :dance:
