About This Calculator

This calculator shows how adding extra monthly payments to your existing mortgage shortens your payoff timeline and reduces total interest paid. Enter your current balance, rate, and remaining term, then add an extra monthly payment amount to see the impact.

How This Is Calculated

Extra principal payments reduce the balance interest accrues on each month, shortening the schedule.

Interest Saved
Original total interest minus total interest with extra payments applied

On a $280,000 balance at 6.5% with 25 years remaining, adding $200/month extra could save tens of thousands in interest and cut several years off the payoff timeline.

Assumptions

  • Assumes the extra payment is applied consistently every month for the life of the loan.
  • Assumes a fixed interest rate.
  • Extra payments are assumed to go entirely toward principal, as is standard when specified with your lender.
