Huge Interest Savings: Available to Anyone with a Mortgage

There's a trick to significantly reduce the length of your mortgage and save thousands in interest: Make additional payments that apply toward the principal. People employ various techniques to meet this goal. For many people,Perhaps the easiest way to organize this process is by making 1 extra mortgage payment per year. If you can't afford to pay an additional 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 option is to pay half of your payment every other week. The effect here is that you make one additional monthly payment each year. Each of these options produces slightly different results, but they will all significantly reduce the length of your mortgage and lower your total interest paid.

Additional One-time payment

Some people can't manage extra payments. But remember that most mortgages will allow you to make additional principal payments at any time. Any time you come into unexpected money, you can use this rule to make an additional one-time payment toward principal.

Here's an example: five years after buying your home, you receive a huge tax refund,a very large inheritance, or a non-taxable cash gift; , investing several thousand dollars into your home's principal will reduce the repayment period of your loan and save enormously on mortgage interest paid over the duration of the mortgage loan. Unless the mortgage loan is quite large, even a few thousand dollars applied early can yield huge savings over the life of the loan.
