Frequently Asked Questions

What does a mortgage interest savings calculator show?

It shows how extra monthly principal payments may shorten your mortgage and reduce total interest over the remaining term.

Is this the same as refinancing?

No. Extra payments keep the same loan and rate, while refinancing replaces the mortgage with a new loan.

Why can even small extra payments matter?

Mortgage balances are large and spread over many years, so even moderate recurring extra payments can trim a meaningful amount of future interest.

Does this assume a fixed rate?

Yes. It assumes the current interest rate stays the same for the rest of the mortgage.
