Overpaying on your mortgage

You can make overpayments on any Principality mortgage. Paying a little extra, either regularly or as a one-off sum, can help reduce your overall mortgage balance and the amount of interest you will pay over time. 

Any overpayments you make will appear on your annual statement under ‘transaction history’. 

To find out your overpayment allowance you can make an appointment at one of our branches or call us on 0330 333 4000.

Overpayment FAQs

How much can I overpay?

You can repay up to an additional 10% of your outstanding mortgage balance each year. The amount you can overpay will be 10% of either

  • the total amount you still owed on January 1st of the current year
  • the total amount you owed on the date your mortgage began (if you took out your mortgage after January 1st this year)

 

If you are in the Early Repayment Charges period of your mortgage agreement, any payments you make above this 10% limit will be subject to an Early Repayment Charge. The amount can be found in the “Early repayment” section of your mortgage offer.

 

Does making overpayments impact my interest rate?

Making an overpayment changes the total amount you owe and the amount of interest your mortgage accumulates. When you make an overpayment, we will recalculate these figures immediately.

Will my monthly mortgage payment amount change?

Your monthly mortgage payments will remain the same unless you ask us to alter them.

Can I overpay on a flexible mortgage?

If you have a flexible mortgage, you can overpay at any time. Your monthly payments will be recalculated at your 6 month review.

Can I pay my mortgage off in full?

Yes, but you will be charged a standard Mortgage Early Exit fee and may also have to pay an Early Repayment Charge

But if you are in the Early Repayment Charges period of your mortgage agreement, any payments you make above the annual 10% limit will be subject to an Early Repayment Charge. Each mortgage product has its own terms and conditions so to see if you’d be subject to an Early Repayment Charge, please refer to the ‘Early repayment’ section of your mortgage offer.

More information on the Mortgage Early Exit fee can be found in our tariff of charges.

 

Can I overpay on more than one mortgage?
