If you start to pay more or less toward your mortgage each month than the original payment amount, you can save or add a number of years to the length of your mortgage. Even the difference of just $40 can save you a couple of years or add a couple years to the length of your payment.
If you took out a mortgage loan for $0.00 with a 0.000% interest rate, for example, you could expect to pay $0.00 per month. If you change your payment to $0.00, however, you will have to pay on your mortgage for -0 year(s) and -1 month(s) instead of 0 years.
