How this calculator works
It estimates a fixed monthly principal-and-interest payment, then builds standard and extra-payment schedules month by month. It assumes a fixed rate, no missed payments, no new borrowing and extra payments applied to principal.
Before making extra mortgage payments
Confirm how your servicer applies additional payments and check your loan terms for any prepayment penalty.
