    I'm back from holiday and managed to add £880 into the OP savings pot today thanks to a large order from my website.

    This brings my total to £15009.87/£47300 = 31.73% 

    Moving closer to reaching a third of my balance outstanding

    I love the last day of the month as it's payday for Hubby :)
    This month's money included lots of OT so I have transferred over £2000 into the OP savings pot ready to earn some lovely interest before being used to pay off the mortgage when the fixed rate ends. 
    Talking about interest, the savings accounts have earned £250.50 interest this month so this has been added into the pot too :)

    so my total is now £17262.87 = 36.49%

    That means we are over a third of the way to paying off our first BTL mortgage  :D:D:D

    It's all going really well. Well done you.
    My savings are depleted ...whoops but the kids have all earned some over the past year even with their savings accounts not being that big. It's surprising how quickly interest can add up isn't it. I was quite happy when I opened their statements:)
    Good idea about having it ready for the mgage too once the fix expires
