    • Q4/2024 = 139.3k (5.19% interest rate)
    • Q1/2025 = 125.3k (interest rate dropped from 5.19% - 4.69%)
    • Q2/2025 = 108.9K (interest rate 4.44%)
    • Q3/2025 = 92.2k (interest rate dropped from 4.44% to 4.19%)
    • Q4/2025 = 76.5k (interest rate 4.19%)

    My first post of 2025 and I'm happy to be back! I have been quietly overpaying for the last 12 months....and sadly an inheritance pushed us unexpectedly further along... and as a result we're hurtling towards the end. The bank have put our payments down to £94 a month, but I'm still classing anything over £475 (my old amount) as an overpayment. 

    #75 OP for June £374
    Mortgage when saw the MSE light 💡: £85,000 (end date 2045)
    2019: £65,638
    💰 2024 Increased mortgage for house move:  £112,000 (end date 2054)
    Current end date: May 2026

    Everything will be alright in the end so, if it’s not yet alright, it means it’s not yet the end
