  • Even $100/month extra on a $300K mortgage saves $50,000+ in interest
  • Biweekly payments make 13 payments per year instead of 12
  • Canadian mortgages typically renew every 5 years — plan extra payments around renewal

Pro Tips

If your mortgage rate is below 5%, investing extra payments at 8% historically earns more than prepaying. Consider your risk tolerance.

Round up your payment to the next $100 — small increases add up dramatically over decades.

Specify that extra payments go to PRINCIPAL, not future payments. Call your servicer to confirm.
