Save Big on your Mortgage

Here's a simple trick to reduce the repayment period of your mortgage and save thousands of dollars over the course of your loan: Make extra payments which go to your principal. People accomplish this goal in a few different ways. Paying one additional full payment once every year is perhaps the simplest to arrange. If you can't afford to pay an extra whole payment all at once, you can divide your payment by 12 and write a check for that additional amount monthly. Another option is to pay a half payment every two weeks. The effect here is that you make one additional monthly payment every year. These options differ slightly in lowering the final payback amount and reducing payback length, but each will significantly shorten the duration of your mortgage and lower your total interest paid.

Lump-sum Additional Payment

Some folks can't manage extra payments. Keep in mind that almost all mortgages will permit you to make additional payments to your principal at any point during repayment. Whenever you come into extra cash, you can use this rule to pay a one-time additional payment toward your principal. Here's an example: several years after moving into your home, you receive a very large tax refund,a very large legacy, or a non-taxable cash gift; , paying several thousand dollars into your mortgage principal will significantly reduce the repayment period of your loan and save a huge amount on interest paid over the duration of the mortgage loan. Unless the loan is very large, even a few thousand dollars applied early in the loan period can yield huge benefits over the life of the loan.
