This is sound advice
pay just 10% more monthly and you take 5 years off your term.
this calculator works well.

Now the question is if I take all the money that's been overpaid in my home loan (which is enough for a deposit), buy another studio flat and rent it out will that be beneficial to me?
Thanks for the info guys, much appreciated, Two payments a month then!Quote:

This saving compounds monthly effectively saving you substantial amounts over the total loan period.
