    After having been a homeowner for nearly a year and a half now, I have finally made my first ever mortgage overpayment! Whilst I probably should've started this sooner, I think what has prompted me to start this is seeing my interest rates on my saving accounts continue to fall!

    It's crazy to see how much interest I pay per month relative to how much is actually taken from my bank account, looking forward to seeing that monthly interest figure going down in the future as my overpayments really tackle my balance!
