Here's a simple trick to reduce the repayment period of your mortgage and save thousands in interest: Make additional payments which apply toward the loan principal. Borrowers make this happen in several different ways. Making a single extra full payment once per year may be the easiest to keep track of. If you can't afford to pay an additional whole payment in one month, you can divide that payment by 12 and write a check for that additional amount monthly. Another popular option is to pay a half payment every other week. The effect here is that you make one additional monthly payment every year. Each of these options yields slightly different results, but each will significantly shorten the length of your mortgage and lower the total interest you will pay over the life of the loan.

Lump Sum Extra Payment

Some folks can't manage extra payments. But remember that most mortgages will allow you to make additional payments at any time. You can benefit from this rule to pay extra on your mortgage principal when you get some extra money. If, for example, you were to receive a surprise windfall just a few years into your mortgage, investing several thousand dollars into your home's principal will shorten the repayment period of your loan and save enormously on mortgage interest paid over the life of the loan. Unless the mortgage loan is quite large, even a few thousand dollars applied early in the loan period can yield huge benefits over the life of the loan.
