Additional Payments Yield Huge Savings

Making regular additional payments toward your principal can yield big savings. Borrowers can do this in several ways. For many people,Perhaps the simplest way to keep track is by making 1 extra payment every year. If you can't afford to pay an additional whole payment all at once, you can split that large amount into 12 smaller payments and pay that additional amount monthly. Another option is to pay half of your payment every two weeks. The result is you make one additional monthly payment each year. These options differ a little in reducing the final payback amount and shortening payback length, but they will all significantly reduce the duration of your mortgage and lower your total interest paid.

Additional One-time payment

Some folks just can't make extra payments. But it's important to note that most mortgages allow additional principal payments at any time. You can benefit from this provision to pay extra on your mortgage principal when you come into extra money.

For example: five years after buying your home, you receive a larger than expected tax refund,a very large legacy, or a non-taxable cash gift; , paying a few thousand dollars into your mortgage principal can shorten the repayment duration of your loan and save enormously on interest paid over the duration of the loan. For most loans, even a relatively modest amount, paid early in the mortgage, could offer big savings in interest and length of the loan.
