    I know I'm late to the party, but any chance I could join the challenge? It's been about 6 months since I bought my flat and I'm finally in a position to make some small overpayments.

    My goal is to overpay £1000 by December.

  • Number #28. March op of £80.42
    A lot lower than I'd like but I have paid for my living room and dining room to be completely replastered, so I'm hoping the effect on equity (overpayment + price rise due to perfect plaster) will be the same as if I'd made a bigger op.

    Thanks
    Julicorn.

    No 70 reporting an OP of £500 for April.



    I move house at the end of this month and will have a slightly larger mortgage, looking forward to OPing straight away :D

    Hello,
    #59 reporting an OP of £243.58 for April, making a total OP for year so far of £309.48.
    Mortgage became a round figure £53K.
    I am not quite on target as I need to buy euros for summer travel, will try harder to OP after summer and as much as I can before then.
    Thanks.
