Could a small repayment change help you pay off your home loan sooner?
Paying half your monthly repayment every fortnight adds up to 26 half-payments a year the equivalent of 13 monthly repayments instead of 12.
That extra repayment may help reduce your loan balance and total interest over time.
☕ Even adding the cost of one coffee a week to your home loan can add up over time. Small, regular extra repayments may help you get ahead the difference depends on your loan balance, interest rate and how consistently you contribute.
Before making a change, check:
✅ How your lender calculates fortnightly repayments
✅ Any extra-repayment limits or fees, especially on fixed loans
✅ Whether the higher annual repayments fit your budget
✅ That you still have an emergency buffer
Simply switching payment frequency won’t always produce an extra repayment the calculation matters.
