If I decide to pay more money towards my mortgage each month for 6 months, will the required amount that I need to pay each month after be less because I am paying more money upfront?
TIA

No your monthly payment will not change. The extra payments are applied to the principal balance and you end up paying less interest.

No. It will only cut the number of payments.
Unless you refinance, then you can take a new loan on what you really owe and you will have less interests to pay since the principal is smaller. You just need to calculate which one is more advantageous to you.

It will shorten the length of the loan, but your payments will stay the same...
