Month and year of first mortgage payment:

Select the month and year of your first mortgage payment. If this is an existing mortgage the extra payment mortgage calculator will assume that a payment has not been made for the current month, so the current month will be used as the start of the amortization schedule.

If you would like to add an extra payment on a reoccurring weekly basis, enter the monthly amount on this line without the dollar sign. If no monthly extra payments are desired, leave blank or enter a zero.

Note that weekly extra payments are applied in a lump sum each month based on how many weeks are in the month (e.g., 31 days in January = 31 รท 7 = 4.429 weeks x weekly extra payment).

Number of payments made:

Based on your entries, this is how many payments you have made from your first payment through last month. If the current month is the same as the first payment date you selected, the number of payments made should be zero.

Payoff:Payoff amount:Current payoff amount:Current mortgage payoff amount:

Current mortgage payoff amount:

Based on your entries, this is how much you still owe (principal balance) on your home loan after deducting all of the principal payments you have already made. If the current month is the same as the first payment date you selected, the number of payments made should be zero.

Is it better to pay lump

Making a lump-sum payment always saves you money on interest. And depending on how you handle it, the payment will either shorten the time it takes to pay off your mortgage or reduce your monthly payment amount.

How does Amortization work with extra payments?

Even a single extra payment made each year can reduce the amount of interest and shorten the amortization, as long as the payment goes toward the principal and not the interest (make sure your lender processes the payment this way).

Is it better to make extra payments or lump

Save on interest Since your interest is calculated on your remaining loan balance, making additional principal payments every month will significantly reduce your interest payments over the life of the loan. By paying more principal each month, you incrementally lower the principal balance and interest charged on it.

Will my monthly payments go down if I pay a lump

Your required monthly mortgage payments will not be lowered when you make a lump sum payment on your mortgage or recast a loan, and you will still be required to pay the same amount to your lender going forward. However, your interest charges for each month will be adjusted.
