Why Make Extra Mortgage Payments?
Because mortgage interest is calculated on the remaining principal balance, any extra payment you make reduces the principal immediately. This means that next month, you will be charged less interest, and more of your standard payment will go toward the principal, accelerating your payoff timeline.
