#59 - Kicking off March by overpaying £215! I had a good job interview on Friday as well. My husband and I have decided that if I'm successful and get the job (should hear this week) that we will overpay the mortgage by my entire salary each month just to try and bring the mortgage down quicker!
Thanks so much for the updates. 😊Original mortgage total: £140,000.00 (July 2015) Original mortgage end date: June 2040
Mortgage free start date: 16th October 2018 Mortgage total at this point: £132,829.12
Current mortgage total: £54,762.71 Current mortgage end date: June 2032 Daily interest: £7.59 > £2.644 -

#3 reporting my March overpayment of £2,600. This makes £6,600 for 2021 so far.Lockdown is really helping my overpayments, as is my YNAB obsession 😄 I think it will slow down when everything reopens but am going to try my hardest to keep some of my good money habits!
Thanks so much for keeping the spreadsheet updated Julicorn. I find it so motivating having an accountable and visible target. Really important to me as a single parent with no one to share the journey with in real life. Thank you!MFW
