You have several options for paying off your mortgage early. Every day we are helping people pay off their mortgage faster and save money by refinancing.

Time-tested Loan Options to Pay off Your Mortgage Early

You can refinance up to 97 percent of the primary value of your home. You can buy a primary home for a down payment as low as three percent.

  • Your monthly payment will be determined according to your principal loan amount, your interest rate, and your amortized interest over the term
  • Your payment will remain unchanged throughout the term of your loan
  • Your actual payment will vary depending on your situation and the prevailing rates at the time of your application
  • You are free to pay your mortgage any time without incurring prepayment penalties

You may qualify for an FHA loan with a credit score as low as 580. You can refinance up to 97.75 percent of the primary value of your home. You can buy a home with a down payment as low as 3.5 percent.

  • Your actual payment will vary depending on your situation and the prevailing rates at the time of your application
  • You are free to pay your mortgage any time without incurring prepayment penalties
  • Various loan terms are all available at fixed rates
  • You can also choose an ARM (adjustable rate mortgage)

Compared to a conventional loan, you could qualify with more debt and a lower credit score. With a VA loan, you can have lower interest rates, resulting in a lower monthly payment and a shorter lifespan of the loan since you will be able to pay off your home even faster.

  • Expect better interest rates than lines of credit and home equity loans
  • Use VA cash-out refinance to borrow up to 100 percent of the value of your home
  • If you already have a VA loan, you could still possibly refinance up to 120 percent of the value of your home

Faster Repayment – Benefits

A faster repayment means you will be able to own your house outright faster than you would with the current mortgage. Paying off your loan early could place you at a financial advantage over time, while saving you a significant amount of interest.

Faster Repayment – Limitations

Just like lengthening your loan period reduces your monthly payments, shortening your loan period inversely means increasing your monthly payments. Speak to an Intelliloan® Loan Specialist to evaluate what your new monthly payments and loan term could be.
