Benefits of Extra Payments
- Save Interest: Every extra payment goes directly to principal, reducing the balance faster and saving interest.
- Pay Off Early: Extra payments can shave years off your mortgage term.
- Build Equity Faster: More principal reduction means more home equity, faster.
- Financial Flexibility: Even small amounts add up significantly over time.
Tips for Extra Payments
- Be Consistent: Set up automatic extra payments each month.
- Specify Principal: Always indicate extra payments go to principal only.
- Check for Prepayment Penalties: Some loans charge fees for early payoff.
- Consider Biweekly Payments: Making half your payment every two weeks equals 13 payments per year.
