If your lender doesn't offer formal bi-weekly payments, you can still achieve the same results:

Alternative Strategies:

• Make one extra payment per year: Divide your monthly payment by 12 and add that amount to each monthly payment
• Round up your payments: If your payment is $1,523, pay $1,600 each month
• Make principal-only payments: Send extra payments marked "for principal reduction only"
• Use bi-weekly bill pay: Set up automatic bi-weekly payments through your bank's bill pay system
• Save and make lump sum payments: Save the bi-weekly amount and make quarterly or annual extra payments

Important: Always verify with your lender how they apply extra payments and ensure they go toward principal reduction, not future payments.

The earlier, the better! Starting bi-weekly payments early in your mortgage maximizes compounding savings:

Savings by starting year:

• Year 1: Maximum savings potential (100%)
• Year 5: Still save 80-90% of potential
• Year 10: Save 60-70% of potential
• Year 15: Save 40-50% of potential
• Year 20+: Limited savings, but still pays off earlier

Example on $300,000 at 4.5%:

• Start Year 1: Save $32,400, pay off 4.8 years early
• Start Year 5: Save $28,100, pay off 4.2 years early
• Start Year 10: Save $21,800, pay off 3.3 years early
• Start Year 15: Save $14,200, pay off 2.2 years early

The best time to start was when you got your mortgage. The second best time is today!
