One VERY IMPORTANT point to add to this video is that where you choose to live matters. We chose to live just outside London, and as such bought a house without a huge mortgage (relative to London prices) on it. This was a deliberate decision as we could have afforded living in a major City like London but chose not to. Hopefully, those who are still to buy a property will find this point useful. LESS DEBT = LESS TIME TO FREEDOM :) . *MORTGAGE OVERPAY CALCULATOR UPDATED FOR 2022* - thehumblepenny.com/MortgageCalculator
Plus the *INSTRUCTIONS for using the Mortgage Payoff Calculator* is here - thehumblepenny.com/early-mortgage-payoff-calculator
*FINAL POINT - You can get mortgages WITHOUT Early Repayment Charges (ERC)!* This is one way to pay more than 10% (if you can afford it). I know for certain that providers such as Nationwide offer this. This is not Financial Advice 😀. Please use a broker and make the decision based on your personal circumstances.
Hey John, thank you!
Absolutely! Yes some banks do exactly for that reason.
The Humble Penny great video. Say you had a side hustle and made £200 a month which you wanted to put to your mortgage. Would you first have to pay income tax on that side hustle or is there some tax benefit to overpaying mortgage whereby you do not have to pay tax (or reduced amount) in this money if it’s going to overpayments
It really depends on the type of income. The general rule is that you pay tax on side hustles but at varying rates depending on the type of income e.g. Salary, dividends, interest, profits, etc.
However, the one thing (that most people can rate to) that you don't pay tax on is renting a room to a lodger if you make £7,500 per year or less.
Hi mr penny 😊 I’ve watched some American videos that talk about creating family banks. Have you heard of that and is it possible in the UK?
Hi Candy Cat,
I haven't come across those here. Thanks for checking out the channel 😀
Great video. I took out a 25 year mortgage in 2009 and made overpayments. It will be paid off by next year. FREEEEEDOM!!!!!!!!!!!
That is EPIC! 🙌🏾😊
Can you keep us updated, please.
Happy New Year too you!
Did u get charged for making overpayments ?
The Power of Zen awesomeness ‼️
Great video. Im 54 and have moved into my garage (workshop has been converted to a small flat) and Im renting rooms in my house out so I can get my mortgage paid off fast using the rental income. I have bought it down from 16 years to 5 and cant wait to be mortgage free.
Paula, very smart move!!! 😀
Please, and I'm sure you do, treat your tenants fairly and with absolute kindness. Fix something when it needs fixing. You can even go so far as to throw a barbeque for them every summer to say thank you. You're living 'on top of each other' so it's good to live in friendship and remember that they're paying your way.
@@scotsam7590 mind your business
Excellent!
That's a fab idea! Well done
i worked all the way through Covid as a Lorry Driver in the UK and i couldnt travel anywhere on Holiday, and i have now payed off my Morgage, thankyou for your inspiration both.
Me and my husband are hoping to be mortgage free at this stage at around 40-41 years old. We’re both 30-31 now. I wish I had found you and this incredible advice 5 years ago! But no time like the present, thank you so much for making this information accessible
Laura, you're so welcome. Great point too!
Thanks for the advice, I took out my 30year mortgage 23years ago but decided to take you’re advice and pay it off in the next 7years 😂
😂🤣🤣
😂
Thanks to this guy, I now only have 8 years left to pay, I cannot thank this man enough, he first came by his stuff during lockdown, but what this has done for me is crazy, I now have my job and 3 side hustles which are not stressful, all stewarding work which allows me to watch football sometimes and get paid for it. RUclips does have gems if you want to find them, and the best part all this education is for free. Thank you.
Just received a recommendation of this channel now! So refreshing to see a UK based( and not US as usual) information on this. Subscribed 👍🏽
Welcome aboard, Chinonye 😊. Glad you're getting value from the content. Also interesting to see RUclips recommending our channel.
I am currently binging all your videos! My fiance and I haven't bought a house yet but I am already planning on how we will make overpayments! FI, here we come!
Smart plan! 😉. Thanks for binging 💛
Just came across this channel. Good to see a UK channel on this topic.
We appreciate you watching 😊
There really are few and far between, which is why I summoned up the courage to start my own personal finance channel. I love their content, so helpful, clear and easy to digest!
UK channels typically has a lot less drama then e.g. American channels. Regards from a Dane :)
Tolu Frimpong Frimpong your Ghanaian and you talk finance. Your my girl, I’m subscribing now xx
About time. tired of hearing Americans blabbing all over RUclips. Salute
Congratulations! I'm 37 and given myself 7 years to pay off the mortgage on my property and this video is really helpful!
Go go go! 😉
Great to see a UK channel doing this. Inspired me to set up my own too- we definitely need more in the UK. Great content as always!
👊🏼
Great video so I've subscribed, I have just recently taken out a mortgage at the age of 56, I have it over 13yrs but I over pay a further £1200, should have it done in 6.5years😁
Hi Mark
6.5 years would be amazing! Sounds like the kind of result you'd get with that level of overpayments.
Nissan Leaf out on the front too, this brother be saving all over the place
😂🤫
Bro your channel is amazing! so glad I stumbled upon it. What you teach needs to be part of the national curriculum in schools! This is real life education!!
Thanks a lot!! 😊🙏🏽
What an amazing channel! I have been following your blog for years. Love this! Thank you 🙏🏽
I took a 250k mortgage over 30 years 8 years ago and I should pay it off in next 2 years
💥👍🏼👍🏼
How have you made that possible?
@@staffysmile3325
By giving over payments a month and always shopping around for the best mortgage rate when fixing for 2 year period
Good on you. Ramadan Mubarak
Could I ask how much you would overpay each month?
Great video. We followed quite a bit of this advice...bought our house in 2006 and paid it off in 2018...12 years by overpaying as well as doing well with stocks and shares separately in an ISA. The goal was to pay it off before 40 and did it at 38 in the end 🙂. The savings are huge but it’s amazing not having a mortgage every month again.
Hi Oliver
That's phenomenal! I love the goal of doing it before 40. What is your goal now?
Hi @The Humble Penny - It's been strange actually as we've been quite 'aimless' every since paying off the mortgage which just shows how important it is to have clear goals. We recently changed our goal to be able to be in a position to retire at 55 should we wish to. It's not to say we have to but what's great about it is that neither of us will ever lie awake scared of being made redundant and having to find something in later life. Also, my uncle had a really great way to look at life....his view was: The first 25 years of your life is about learning and studying, the second 25 years is about working, and the last 25 years you should enjoy...if you get more than 25 at the end, it’s a bonus...if you get less, at least you still made the right decision to stop earlier. Whilst i wont stop at 50, the mindset behind his advice was really nice and motivating.
Good stuff. I've literally just got my first mortgage. My payments are relatively low and very manageable. Doing some quick calculations and I'm certain I can take several years off already! God bless bro
Steve, AWESOME stuff!! 😀. Thanks for stopping by and God bless!
What an awesome video man!! Excellent info! Thank you..
I just paid off my house in total this week! I am 30 years old, my wife and I bought our terrace house 3 years ago, rented it out immediately and paying it off had become the obession! good luck to everyone. it can be done.
@E B I work on boats, so no rent or bills
Our Goal is to pay off our mortgage within the same time frame. Currently it feels like mission impossible, but you guys have given us some hope! Thank you for the amazing content, keeo up the amazing work.
Much appreciated! 😀
Thanks for having a UK person talking about this topic. I've about had enough of those Americans blabbing all over RUclips.
You're most welcome :). Are you working towards becoming mortgage free?
Really enjoyed this bud. Thank you for this 😁
So helpful, thank you for sharing this 🙏✨
Love Ken’s enthusiasm in this video. You can see he is really passionate about FI. I am at the very beggining of my FI journey and Humble Penny has been a game changer for me!
Hey Leanne
Thanks a lot for watching! 😊. You're at the start of an exciting journey and I'm super pleased to hear that FI is something you want to explore. I tell everyone I meet that it's an aspirational journey and one that becomes more REAL as time passes. Do please invite friends to check out the channel. Much appreciated 😁
Overpayments is my strategy going forward. This only struck me when needing to remortgage this year. A second job will help me get the thing down. I'm by myself but I'm going to do this.
Love your videos, thank you!
Go for it 💪🏾. Keep us updated.
@@TheHumblePenny I will. I'd love my mortgage cleared in 10 years. My mindset has shifted enormously this year. Need better secondary income for sure, occasional bar work isn't it.
Really informative. Thank you so much
Throughly enjoyed watching this and has given me motivation to evaluate current circumstances. Il look forward to watching your other videos!!.
Awesome, Ashley! Evaluating current circumstances sounds like a result. Cheers
Hey, I just came across your channel and I'm so glad that I did. Thanks for sharing this great info brother!!

One of the most inspirational videos I’ve seen on RUclips. I can’t thank you enough for this video up.
You're most welcome, Patience 😊
I've wanted to watch this video for some time now but just found the time. Thanks so much for the insight. We have learnt a lot and I am definitely going to make some serious decisions based on this. It's been a blessing!
Hey Joleisa, so good to hear from you guys and happy that you're blessed by the content 😊. Taking the step towards mortgage freedom is so motivating. And the more that debt decreases, the better you feel and the freer you become. Life is certainly A LOT more fun and exciting. I look forward to hearing more about your progress.
Pls feel free to also suggest video ideas for us to create 😀
Amazing video - thank you !
amazing video!, so helpfull
Love this video- you’ve inspired me ! I’m itching to get started on the side hustles and can’t wait to use the mortgage calculator! Making it my mission to be mortgage free in 5 years! You’re fab!
Hey Asma!
Thank you 😀. You can do it in 5 years! Absolutely
Amazing content! You and Mary are great people and deserve the best life has to offer!

Much appreciated :)
You are BRILLIANT at speaking and explaining! What a gift! Haha loved this! So inspiring!
Hey Tayla, thanks so much! 😀. It means a lot to hear that because I grew up very shy and lacked confidence with articulating my ideas. RUclips is helping me to communicate better by making these videos :). By the way, love you singing!
@@TheHumblePenny aw I love that!!!! You make it easy to understand and connect. Please don’t stop, you’re making a big difference to other peoples lives with this side hustle! ;) I’ve watched loads, and have subscribed. Thank you!

This video popped up at the right time, been thinking about repayments recently. Thanks for this will definitely swap expenses.
👊🏼😉
Nice. Definitely gonna take these to heart
Fantastic video. Me and my wife are planning to buy a home next year and these are fantastic tips. In fact I saved it for the day we buy a home and share this video with others. Great video for UK viewer's
Wow, this video is fire. So inspired and ready to apply these concepts to my life
Hey Franklin,
Your comment is massively encouraging!! 😊👊🏼. Pleased to see that the knowledge that we easily take for granted is finding some use in your life.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, experience, geekiness😂😂 The glow is your eyes and smile, is evidence that being Mortgage free has a made a huge difference to your life. This was so inspiring! Thank you!

Ajay 👊🏼😊. Thanks a lot, bro! Much appreciated. Please share with others
I have just come across your channel. Thank you so much for this, I learned so much from this.
AMAZING! 😊🙏🏽
Great to have come across your channel, inspired me to phone my provider, they dropped my interest rate by 2%, saving me £50 a month alone!
We've been overpaying for 5 years. We're on 5 year fixed as well. We can do more and im looking at side hustles. Thanks for this. 😊
You're welcome, Jackie! 😀
@Jackie AQ Don't just think of side hustles!! Create your own business!! Being in full control of your own money. That's true financial freedom
I laughed all throughout this video because I could feel your excitement! I’m fired up!💪🏽
Haha! Go go go, Nicky! :)
Thank you for your great Ideas!
Blessings.
From Atlanta GA.
Thank you, Lucy 😊
Another awesome video! Thank you so much for your channel
Much appreciated, Jaymal! 👊🏾
I really liked your motivating and empowering speech. You are right, if people just focused on good financial planning, they will reap the benefits further down the line. It's definitely worth it.
Much appreciated! :)
This channel is GOLD!!!!!!!!!
Much love, Tae! 😀
This is so so so good Ken!!!! Excellent...! I am on it
😉
Great video .well done dude
Great video - plain English and easy to understand thank you. My one question - you say you started overpayments immediately, but many mortgage agreements with fixed interest rates for 2,3 years etc. do not permit overpayments. Is it better to re-mortgage to a low fixed rate or accept the higher rate and overpay?
Great vid. Prompted me and my other half to take out a joint mortgage which starts in December. A 5 year mortgage with Nationwide which allows overpayments without penalties. We aim to be mortgage free in 24 months.
Wonderful!! Good to see you making the move and being proactive to find a lender that does not hold you back! 😀
Wow !
Thank you for posting. My Sweetheart (my girlfriend) shared this video with me.
Thank you SO much for this video. I've had an itching to pay off my mortgage early and this video has motivated me so much. God bless you.
You're most welcome, Grace! 😊
Great content as always. Love your channel. Thanks for the help!
Myself and my wife are on course to pay off our 25 year mortgage is less than 12 years, and before age 45. Two years into the mortgage we refinanced to a 15 year mortgage at a great fixed rate and are hitting the principal hard. Saving and investing for your future is so much more rewarding than mindlessly spending. Once you realise you don’t need any of the stuff you stop wanting it! Gives you more time for the important things in life. We’ve never been happier! 🙌
💯. Huge congrats to you and your wife 😀. Thanks for watching and supporting our channel
Recently discovered your channel and I love it! I've considered overpayments but never looked into it... but now I have and I'm amazed how how much we can save in interest and the reduction of how long it'd take to pay off.
Thank you! 😀😀
Cheers, Fiona! 😀
You my friend have just earned a sub. Great video that actually makes me excited to pay my mortgage off!
Nice one, mate! 😀
Well Done. I loved your advice.
Gosh you're so smart! I wouldn't have ever thought of paying a mortgage off twice a month! Thank you :)
😉 tbh these are things that you get to learn over time
Agree to all your advice and live by the same philosophy. My friends and family think I’m nuts, but I’m so motivated to be mortgage free
Excellent!! 😀. Keep at it. You'll be the one laughing.
The Humble Penny I bet you’ve watched your share of Dave Ramsey videos too 😀 Looking back I’m mad for not discovering FI earlier. Something is fundamentally wrong when “everybody” accepts living paycheck to paycheck.
Fantastic video!
Inspiring video on the very real possibilities of paying off one's mortgage in a shorter term; doing small things which result in a huge shift. Something I think many do not consider. A house is often our largest purchase and we almost periodically pay out this huge monthly outgoing to the lender in rote manner, at their request, without thinking creatively. I've subscribed!
This is great advice, thank you so much! I'm a solo homeowner and I think I can pay off my mortgage in 15 years - would be half that if I had a partner! I have 340,000 left to go on a new salary of 105,000 - you'd think that salary would make it easy but it doesn't! Will use these tips and see how I get on. If RUclips still exists in 15 years, please remind me to stop by for an update 😄
You'll most likely do it before 15 😀. Keep going 💪🏾
Me too, I have just over 300k left over 2 properties.
6 figure income, saving half salary to make overpayments. Aiming to clear them in the next 5 years.
Love the content! Just a small suggestion, I struggled with the audio quality in this vid. Might be time for a solid mic to reduce the echo in the room. Cheers!
Great suggestion, Jay! This was one of our earlier videos 😁. We have since improved the sound on other videos. Glad to hear that you found this useful.
Powerful stuff, thank you soo much, we ill start with the £100 per month overpayment then £250 and by next year £500 per month
This is fantastic content. I have learned so much. Floreat!
Floreat! 💪🏾💪🏾
No I totally agree with you it is EXCITING saving on all that interest and all them years it’s amazing!!!!!! Being mortgage free is the best idea over savings. I can start saving after that point! 42 is my Happy year if everything flows!!!!!! It’s actually mental how much that £100 changes but the mortgage advisors never really tell you none of this (Annoying). Great video has driven me even more. The thing about life is things crop up or overtime can drop but for now I’m super focused. I didn’t do what you did at 28 I paid a low amount to free up more money to live but at 33 I locked into the idea 💡 man I want this done before children I went from paying like £700 a month to £1000 sacrificed holidays etc but I shaved off so so many years. I keep thinking but when it’s done then we will see the holidays il go on. Having a bigger bulk left over after the bills is a big peace of mind not being forced to do extra overtime every week to survive. Freedom is the best thing in life and with that I’m sure everything will flow and improve too. Loved the video and the passion in your voice wish I’d started over paying on day one but I’m just glad I am now and have been. To one day get paided and a £1000 is not going out of my salary wow!!!!! I can save it towards a pension, spend it and be lavish pay for things easier it gives you so many options!!!! I need to stay focused and graft
Great content. I’ve cut two years from my mortgage over last five years simply by cutting the term at the points my fixed rates ended. I simply view this as like a form of overpaying, knowing I could be paying a less each month if I stuck to the original 30 years. Now on course to be mortgage free at 49 instead of 51 (we got a 30 year mortgage both at the age of 22) I will begin increasing the monthly amounts with the overall goal of being free by 45.
Good work!
Such great content. Genius!! Thanks for sharing✨🥰
Much appreciated, Shola! 😊
All of the information is important... Thank you🙏💯
You're most welcome :)
I am so glad to find you. Brilliant UK based content.
We are older (50.s) our goals were to pay off our mortgage, have an emergency fund, educate the kids to FI, minimise our needs & have enough to pay annual bills.
Currently doing better than expected after the first year. 3 years off mortgage, 8 to go, annual bills & emergency fund covered, kids enrolled to mum school of money 😊 and plans for side hustles formulating (you are a big help there) . Going forward...get hubbie doing a job he's happier in, converting our garage and smashing that mortgage ❤
Jane 💪🏾💪🏾👏🏽👏🏽😁. LOVE your progress!! So happy to read this. AWESOME start to 2020.
This was a really helpful video, thank you :) I chose to buy outside London too - I now combine working from home with a long commute, which I enjoy, firstly, I work on the train and count it towards my working hours :) secondly I am on the way to owning my own affordable home, I am also making overpayments - thanks to your explanation I’m just about to increase these overpayments a bit each month 🙂
You're most welcome 😊. You're on your way 💪🏾💪🏾
New subscriber. Thank you for the information, I started 1 year ago, paying £50 a month and more when I have extra.
Excellent video Ken. Simple things that I had never thought about.
Thank you 🙏🏾. Please share with others
Soooo good to see a UK based channel for financial knowledge. This video is so timely for me as I am now starting a house buying journey in middle age and I'd like to pay it off early. I like that you do the breakdown and the calculations for different overpayment amounts too. Very good content. You gained yourself a new sub today for sure. Please keep doing these you are doing a great job. Blessings
Thanks a lot 😊. Congrats in advance on your home purchase. Exciting times! Be super careful about how much you borrow. That money you borrow is REAL.
@@TheHumblePenny Thanks to you and others willing to share information and educate, I have been preparing for this thoroughly. Hopefully this next phase of my journey will be as successful as paying of debt as a single parent and raising two decent humans has been. I am excited!
THis is quality!
Thank you! 😉
wow i love your work, very intelligently explained, thanks for sharing.
You're most welcome, Anitah 😀
Strange, it is the first video I got notifications for even though I was subscriebed for a while now.
great this one came through
Hi Angelika, that's strange. Good to hear that you got notified. I believe after subscribing, you also have to click on the bell looking icon to be notified each time. We currently make 1 video a week and publish every Thursday. In time, it will become 2 a week. Do keep watching 😀
Mate, so refreshing to see a good video like this from our part of the world and akin to our financial system. Cheers from Denmark.
Thanks a lot! 😊🙏🏽
12:20 The account of your Dad still bearing the burden of a mortgage into retirement. This held a lot of personal resonance for me as exactly the same family dynamic. The feeling of sadness when you think how hard your parents have worked all their lives and it's still hanging over them when they finally retire. Still climbing the mountain rather than free-wheeling down the other side into a comfortable retirement.
YES!! And I bet there are many people who share this same experience. 'Cos what ends up happening is that it become a a problem shared by other family members. Unintended consequences.
This resonates so mum, I want to share the video with my mum
@@magneticaims please do ;)
Very informative video, really enjoyed it, thank you!
You're most welcome! 😀
Great video! This is a goal of mine and you’ve now given me extra ideas on how to go about achieving this. Thank you! Bless you for sharing! : )
Hey Nene, great goal! 😊. It's hardwork but doable with persistence.
The Humble Penny Absolutely!
Thanks again, I love watching your videos. The wage pretty much just covers expenses and I use all your tricks (shopping around, plant based diet etc). I’ve never thought about overpayments because it didn’t seem worth it for what I can afford but I feel motivated now. Keep up the good work!
Thank you! Maybe your focus now should be on making extra money?
