Formula Explanation
Time Saved = Original Loan Term – New Loan Term
Interest Saved = Total Interest × (Time Saved / Total Loan Term)
Example Calculation
$500,000 loan, 3.5% interest rate, 30-year term, extra $500 per month → 5 years saved, $80,000 interest saved.
Why It Matters
Making extra payments can help you pay off your loan faster and save you a significant amount in interest.
Smart Strategy
Start with smaller extra payments and gradually increase them if you can, ensuring that the extra payments fit your budget.
