    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.

    Nationwide allow you overlay 10% of the original loan so that would be £5k per year which would be £400 per month. 
    Thanks guys forgot nationwide is 10% of original

    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 7  
    year 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

    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


    UPDATE:
    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 !
