Have you already found a place or you looking still? My goal was also intially to try pay it off within 5 years but I managed to make some extra money every month and just put it all into my bond so I am one of the lucky ones but 5 years isn't bad at all :)

Bought a place in August last year and put down a nice big deposit, but still have about 680k to pay off. Originally I had wanted to put in all my disposable income into it for the first year or 2 but that disappeared when I saw how expensive it actually was to furnish a place >.< But now that I have all my basics I'm starting from next month to put more money into it.

My other issue is my car is paid off because it was a cheap Corsa but based on the quote I got from my last service, they seem to think everything needs replacing...Which I thought was rubbish cause I haven't noticed anything wrong with the car so I need to take that in for a second opinion. So if it's as bad as they say then I might need to buy a new car, which not something I want to do >.<
