Mortgage balance over time
Standard repayment path compared with your overpayment scenario.
Estimate monthly mortgage repayments, total interest, and the impact of regular overpayments.
Standard repayment path compared with your overpayment scenario.
Assumptions
Repayment path
The mortgage result is an amortisation scenario: each payment is split between interest and reducing the balance.
The repayment calculation uses standard amortisation maths from loan amount, interest rate and term.
Optional overpayments reduce the outstanding balance earlier, which can reduce total interest and shorten the repayment path in the estimate.
Overpayment scenario
Result: The overpayment scenario is compared with the standard repayment path for interest and payoff timing.
Overpayments usually help most when they reduce principal early, but lender limits and charges still matter.
