Making an extra mortgage payment each year may seem small, but putting additional money toward principal can add up over time. Some homeowners do this through biweekly payments, while others make extra principal payments monthly or annually. Potential savings depend on your loan balance, interest rate, and how long you keep your mortgage. Understanding how extra payments are applied and whether fees apply can help you make the most of your strategy.

It can be surprising to see how your mortgage payment is divided, especially during the first few years of a loan. With a typical amortizing mortgage, interest is calculated on the outstanding principal balance. As you gradually pay down that balance, less of each payment goes toward interest and more goes toward principal. This is also why making additional principal payments early in the loan can have a greater impact on the total interest you pay over time.
