Mortgage payoff calculator

Mid-loan, the original paperwork stops being useful — what you want is the payoff date from today’s balance. Enter your current principal balance (from your latest statement or servicer app), your rate, and the years remaining; the schedule below rebuilds the rest of your loan from right now, including the payoff date, remaining interest, and the payment-by-payment path there.

Then make it interesting: open “Extra payments” and watch the date move. The chart plots your current trajectory against the accelerated one, and the savings strip prices the difference in interest dollars.

Payment frequency

Biweekly = half the payment every 2 weeks — 26 half-payments a year, the built-in “13th payment”.

Extra payments — see what they save

Extras count as principal-only. Tell your servicer the same thing — here’s how.

How it works

  1. Open this page — the calculator is already set up for "Mortgage payoff calculator". Swap in your own amount, rate and term.
  2. Read off the payment, the payoff date and total interest. The full payment-by-payment table is right below.
  3. Add extra payments or switch to biweekly to watch the payoff date move and the interest saved appear.
  4. Download the schedule as Excel, CSV or PDF — generated on your device; your loan details never leave your browser.

Getting the inputs right mid-loan

Three inputs rebuild your loan. Balance: use the current principal balance, not the payoff quote (the quote adds accrued interest and fees). Rate: your note rate, on the statement. Term: the months remaining until the original maturity date — count from your next payment. With those three, the computed payment should land within a couple of dollars of your actual principal-and-interest payment; if it doesn’t, the usual suspect is an escrow-inclusive number being compared against P&I.

If you’ve already been paying extra, your balance is ahead of the original schedule — which is exactly why starting from today’s balance is the honest way to compute the payoff date. Past extras are already baked into the balance; future extras are what the extra fields model.

Frequently asked questions

Why is my servicer’s payoff amount higher than my balance?

A payoff quote = principal balance + interest accrued since your last payment + any fees, computed to a specific good-through date. Your balance is just the principal. The gap is normally a few weeks of interest. This page schedules the principal; the servicer prices the exact exit.

How do I find out how many months are left on my mortgage?

Statement maturity date minus next payment date, in months — or count payments made and subtract from the original term. If you’ve had a recast or modification, use the servicer’s current maturity date. Enter that number as the term here and the rebuilt schedule should match your statement’s P&I payment within a couple of dollars, which is your confirmation the inputs are right.

Can I pay my mortgage off early without penalties?

Almost certainly yes if the loan closed after January 2014 — CFPB rules ban prepayment penalties on most residential mortgages, with narrow exceptions limited to the first three years of certain fixed-rate loans. Loans older than that or from unusual lenders: read the note. Either way the schedule shows what early payoff saves; the note says whether anything is charged for it.
