Shortcuts to home loan freedom

In the quest for mortgage freedom, every smart move counts. Consider these tips to become mortgage-free faster.

Make repayments as frequently as possible

Consider repaying your mortgage as frequently as possible (such as weekly rather than monthly). This will assist you in paying off your loan faster and save on interest costs long term.

Repay the same amount when interest rates drop

If you’re refixing your home loan at a lower interest rate, but you keep your repayments the same, you’ll pay your loan off faster. More of each payment goes towards repaying the principal, which pays off the outstanding balance faster and reduces your overall interest costs.

Pay a little extra

A little can go a long way when it comes to repaying your mortgage. If your mortgage is on a floating interest rate, try to pay a little extra when you can. If your mortgage is fixed, most lenders will allow you to make a lump sum payment on the loan once a year (although some may charge early repayment fees, so check with your lender first). Making extra repayments will reduce the total amount of interest you’ll pay over the lifetime of your loan - helping you pay it off quicker.
