How to calculate your mortgage overpayments
Trying to work out how making overpayments will alter your mortgage loan by yourself will be quite tricky, if not impossible. So, here’s three simple steps to make this process much easier:
Work out exactly how much you can comfortably afford to overpay – whether as an increase to your monthly repayments or as a lump sum. If you’re looking to increase monthly repayments, be sure to review all of your outgoings so you can be confident the new amount is affordable
Use our mortgage overpayment calculator to see how these changes to your repayments will affect your loan term and the amount of interest you’ll pay overall
Before approaching your mortgage lender, speak to a mortgage broker about your plans to overpay – they will be able to help you look at a range of new mortgage options which could also contribute to your long term goal of paying less interest and reducing your mortgage term

How this overpayment calculator works
Our mortgage overpayment calculator is very simple to use. All you need to do is input the following details:
- The amount you owe on your mortgage
- Remaining loan term
- Current interest rate on your existing mortgage deal
- The amount you wish to overpay by – either monthly and/or a lump sum
And that’s it! Our calculator will then show you your new monthly mortgage repayment (if increasing), how this could alter the loan term and the potential interest you could save.
If you’re not sure exactly how much you may wish to overpay by, you can just alter the figures for those amounts to see a range of different outcomes until you see one that best fits.
Absolute Fab: I got a mortgage as an ex-bankrupt !!!
As an ex-bankrupt with a qualified Annulment I had to take several bridging loans to cover my debt. I found Online Mortgage Advisor who offered fantastic but specific insight to my issues. Within 6 weeks we exchanged contracts and I am now debt-free, and my house is safe.

FAQs
Yes, it’s possible but the key difference between an interest-only mortgage and capital and repayment is that the amount you owe will never reduce, so, in effect, overpaying only the interest amount won’t really change a great deal in terms of your mortgage.
To still achieve the key benefits of reducing your term and/or the interest you pay overall, you should review your repayment vehicle and assess whether you can overpay in order to reach the target amount sooner and repay the capital owed.
