Interest-Only Mortgage with Extra Payments

Interest-Only loans, as their definition implies, require considerably lower monthly payments than regular mortgage plans. Some minor extra payments towards the interest, however, can save you even more money.

Minor regular extra payments can make a major overall difference for your interest-only mortgage costs. If it is, say, a 30 year loan for $250,000.00 at 5.000%, the monthly payment will be about $1,041.67 and you will have paid $375,000.00 in interest by the end of the loan term.

If you pay an extra $50.00 per month, however, your average monthly payment will not be much higher, only $1,054.27. At the end of the loan term, you will have paid $361,537.50 in interest. As your extra payment gets the interest paid off sooner, you will save $13,462.50 in interest by paying an extra $50.00 each month. This will reduce the balance of your $250,000.00 loan to $232,000.00.
