27 years officially, but I make an extra payment every once in a while and my credit card has a program where they send 1% of my yearly charges to my mortgage.
I own a condo so the mortgage really isn't that much anyway.
What credit card do you have???? that's awesome!!!!

Re: How much longer left on your mortgage?
27 1/2 years
makes me wish we could sell & move away, it would be so awesome to not have a mortgage come baby making time. DH won't ever move though, so I can kiss that idea goodbye!

Re: How much longer left on your mortgage?
probably about 22 years. We have been making additional payments to principal but I don't know exactly how that's affecting the time of the mortgage..I do know how much is left to pay though.
I don't plan on keeping this house so it's moot anyway..in the next 5 years I will probably move.

Over 20, I think around 26. I wanted to pay it off sooner but DH said NO, bnecause we have a really low interest rate and because of the tax wright offs.
you save more in interest by paying 1 extra payment a year then you would ever save writing it off for that long
the first 5 years are mostly interest- after that- the write off is very small
on a 30 year fixed- you would save about 7 years
around here that would be about $100K
you aren't saving that on your taxes
I can recommend a great book if you want to prove it to him
We do the extra payment.
so do we...sometimes a little more than an extra payment, towards principal
