Mortgage Savings

Paying regular extra payments toward the principal will yield big returns. Borrowers employ various techniques to accomplish this goal. For many people,Perhaps the easiest way to keep track is by making 1 additional mortgage payment a year. If you can't afford to pay an extra whole payment all at once, you can split that large amount into 12 smaller payments and write a check for that additional amount monthly. Finally, you can pay a half payment every other week. Each option yields different results, but each will significantly shorten the length of your mortgage and lower the total interest you will pay over the duration of the loan.

Lump Sum Extra Payment

Some people can't manage any extra payments. Keep in mind that most mortgage contracts will allow you to make additional payments to your principal at any point during repayment. You can benefit from this provision to pay down your mortgage principal any time you come into extra money.

For example: several years after moving into your home, you get a huge tax refund,a very large inheritance, or a cash gift; , paying several thousand dollars into your mortgage principal will reduce the repayment duration of your loan and save enormously on mortgage interest over the duration of the mortgage loan. Unless the loan is quite large, even modest amounts applied early can produce huge savings over the duration of the loan.
