Understand Your Mortgage and How It Works
Before making changes, it's important to understand your current mortgage. Your loan amount is what you borrowed to buy your home. Your monthly payment includes not just principal and interest, but often property taxes, insurance, and other fees. Review your mortgage documents or account dashboard to confirm your numbers. Then plug them into the calculator to explore payoff options.
How Interest Rate and Loan Term Affect Your Payoff
The two biggest factors in your mortgage cost are your interest rate and loan term. A lower rate reduces how much interest you’ll pay overall. A shorter loan term increases monthly payments but cuts the total interest dramatically. This calculator helps you see how adjusting these variables — or refinancing — changes your payoff timeline.
Top Strategies to Pay Off Your Mortgage Early
- Make Extra Principal Payments: Add a little more each month or make occasional lump sum payments. Every extra dollar goes straight toward your loan balance.
- Switch to Biweekly Payments: Instead of 12 monthly payments, make 26 half-payments each year. This small shift results in one full extra payment annually.
- Refinance to a Lower Rate or Shorter Term: If rates have dropped or your financial situation has improved, refinancing could reduce your cost and help you pay off faster.
- Cut Expenses and Redirect Funds: Even modest changes in spending can free up money to put toward your mortgage.
How to Use the Calculator
Enter your original loan details, current monthly payment, and any planned extra payments. The calculator will show your estimated payoff date, total interest savings, and a breakdown of monthly costs. You can test different scenarios — like adding $100/month or switching to biweekly payments — and instantly see the results.
Important Notes on Prepayment and Refinancing
- Watch for Prepayment Penalties: Some lenders charge fees if you pay off your mortgage early. Review your loan agreement or ask your lender.
- Factor in Refinancing Costs: Closing costs, appraisal fees, and other expenses can add up. Make sure the long-term savings outweigh these upfront costs.
