    Update time.

    Normal loan payments taking place and debt is slowly reducing.

    Looked into clearing HSBC loan with money in savings and would only get a £55 interest refund, however Im getting £9 a month interest on the savings, so decided to let it run naturally over the next 12 months.
    With the other loan being such low interest rate, we have decided to pay £200 a month for mortgage overpayments rather than putting into savings.

    With the money that goes into both loans, mortgage and mortgage overpayments, 60 months/5 years and will be mortgage and debt free.
    LBM 02/01/2021 (£52,000) + (£27,000 2023 home repairs)
    Now 03/06/2025 (£17,545)
    77% of debt cleared

    HSBC Mortgage = £46,421 (4.69% 111 repayments to go)
    HSBC loan = £2,745 (5.3% APR) £302/mth (9 repayments to go)
    Admiral loan = £14,800 (2.7% APR) £321/mth (46 repayments to go)

    Regular Saver = £900/1200
    Emergency Fund = £1,015/2500
