getmore4less said:TheMightyShowerHead said:Worth noting though that most Nationwide products let you pay off 10% of the original loan amount. Many other lenders only allow you to pay 10% of the remaining debt (calculated on each anniversary of the mortgage)
So with nationwide you could pay 5k a year, with others you might be able to pay 5k one year, 4k the next etc.Edi81 said:Nationwide allow you overlay 10% of the original loan so that would be £5k per year which would be £400 per month.
with a £500pm payment on £50k over 10y
10y fix 2.15% £189pm over 30y
end of year 9 looks like this ( paid off in another couple of months)amount rate payment owing £50,000.00 2.15% £500.00 £1,144.16
To hit 10y needs £464pm
if they do a reduced payment calculation each year it looks like you hit overpayment limit in year 7year amount payment payment left overpayment for year 1 £50,000.00 £188.58 £500.00 £45,026.18 £3,737.01 2 £45,026.18 £174.00 £500.00 £39,944.36 £3,912.02 3 £39,944.36 £158.34 £500.00 £34,752.19 £4,099.95 4 £34,752.19 £141.48 £500.00 £29,447.29 £4,302.23 5 £29,447.29 £123.29 £500.00 £24,027.21 £4,520.52 6 £24,027.21 £103.60 £500.00 £18,489.43 £4,756.75 7 £18,489.43 £82.24 £500.00 £12,831.42 £5,013.15 8 £12,831.42 £58.97 £500.00 £7,050.55 £5,292.36 9 £7,050.55 £33.54 £500.00 £1,144.16 £5,597.49 10 £1,144.16 £5.65 £500.00 -£4,890.48 £5,932.25
We have just sold our property and it sold for more than we expected. So we now need a mortgage of £40k.
I'd therefore greatly appreciate if you could do another table as above!
I do want to go fixed, current offers with Nationwide are (on 25yr term):
5yr Monthly cost= 173.27 initial rate = 2.19% APRC = 3.3 total cost of mortgage WITHOUT over payments = 4037.09
10yr Monthly cost= 173.27 initial rate = 2.19% APRC = 2.8 total cost of mortgage WITHOUT over payments = 7347.03
I plan to overpay by 326.73 (to take monthly total to 500).
So what i really need to understand is... given my overpayments... which would be the better deal above...
I believe if i went for a 10yr then i'd have paid it off early and i'll be subject to ERCs (albeit likely low fees - but i'd need to check) and if i go with 5yr then i'd still have some to pay after that term ends so go to standard rate or take up a new mortgage product.
A table and any thoughts from anyone appreciated !
