Mortgage paid off 6 years, 7 months sooner

The scheduled payments line shows the remaining mortgage balance without extra payments. The extra payments line reaches zero sooner.

Extra payments reduce the principal sooner. A smaller balance means less interest is charged in future months, which can shorten the loan and reduce the total interest paid.

What paying extra on your mortgage really means

This calculator estimates how extra monthly payments can change your mortgage payoff time and total interest.

Extra payments applied to principal reduce the amount you still owe. Because future interest is calculated using the remaining balance, lowering the principal sooner can shorten the loan and reduce the total interest paid.

This estimate assumes a fixed interest rate and a recurring extra payment applied directly to principal each month. Loan rules can differ, so your loan agreement determines how extra payments are handled and whether any prepayment terms apply.

Paying extra also means that money is no longer available as cash for other expenses, savings, or investments.

Key takeaway

A small extra payment each month can make a large difference because it reduces both the balance and the time interest has to grow.
