Oh that’s a cracking number L9XSS!
how much will you need to pay each month to pay off within three years?
best of luck with it
First home- Oct’16 until June’21: £170.995- Overpayments made £13,784 (25% extra!).
New forever home- Sep’21 £309,449 @ 2.05%. Plan to clear it before 30 years!!!!!!1 -
I have some savings I’m going to use to offset the remaining 19 months (so about 21k).
Thanks for your reply. 😊1 -

Ok done some number crunching and I can finally pay off my mortgage in 22 months. That means I will have paid the 25 year term off 11 years early. Too early to put the champagne on ice just yet.......😂

Similar, we pay £977 per month, but also about £45 pm critical illness which covers outstanding mortgage if anything happens to me or my husband, so in all we will be £1022 better off!!! Yay!L9XSS said:
