Mortgage Payoff Calculator

Extra principal payments against a mortgage: payoff date moved up, interest saved.

New to this? Start here

Every extra dollar you put toward your mortgage goes straight to the loan's principal instead of future interest, which shrinks both the total interest you'll ever pay and how long you're stuck paying it. There's no trick here — just less balance for interest to grow on. Drag the extra-payment slider to see how much sooner you'd be mortgage-free.

Methodology & assumptions

  • Fixed-rate loan: the scheduled payment is the standard amortization payment for the given balance, APR, and years remaining.
  • Extra principal is applied every month on top of the scheduled payment — no recast, no fees, no change to the interest rate.
  • Property taxes, homeowners insurance, and PMI are excluded — this is principal and interest only.
  • Results are nominal and assume the extra payment stays constant for the life of the loan.
