Enter loan amount, interest rate, term, and an extra monthly payment to compare the standard schedule with an accelerated payoff. See months saved, interest saved, and the new payment total.

How to use this tool

Enter the original loan amount, interest rate, term, planned extra monthly payment, and optional upfront fees. Compare the standard schedule with the accelerated payoff. Optional upfront fees can be entered as dollars or a percent of the loan amount.

Worked example

Example: a $200,000 mortgage at 6.5% for 30 years with an extra $200/month saves about 6 years and substantial interest; closing fees raise total cost equally on both compared paths.

How it works

Enter loan amount, interest rate, term, and an extra monthly payment. Compares the standard amortizing schedule with one that includes the extra payment, showing months and interest saved. Optional upfront fees are added into total cost on both scenarios.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do extra payments save money?

Extra amounts go toward principal, so the balance drops faster and less interest accrues over the life of the loan.

Is the extra payment applied every month?

Yes. The estimate assumes the same extra amount is paid with every monthly installment until the loan is paid off.

Does this include fees or prepayment penalties?

No. Results are estimates based only on principal, rate, term, and extra payment.
