Save Big on Your Mortgage

Paying consistent additional payments toward the principal will provide enormous savings. You can do this using a few different techniques. Making 1 extra full payment one time per year may be the simplest to arrange. If you can't afford to pay an extra whole payment in one month, you can split that large amount into 12 smaller payments and write a check for that additional amount monthly. Another very popular option is to pay half of your payment every two weeks. The result is you will make one additional monthly payment in a year. Each option yields different results, but each will significantly reduce the length of your mortgage and lower your total interest paid.

One-time Additional Payment

It may not be possible for you to pay down your principal every month or even every year. Remember that almost all mortgages will permit you to pay extra on your principal at any point during repayment. You can benefit from this provision to pay down your mortgage principal when you get some extra money. If, for example, you receive an unexpected windfall five years into your mortgage, investing several thousand dollars into your home's principal can reduce the period of your loan and save enormously on mortgage interest paid over the life of the mortgage loan. Unless the mortgage loan is very large, even small amounts applied early in the loan period can yield huge savings over the life of the loan.
