If your lender doesn’t charge prepayment penalty fees and you can responsibly afford to get ahead of your payments, it may make sense to start making mortgage payments before they're due. Paying in advance – even by a week – can give you a head start on interest, helping you to pay down on your principal (aka the amount you borrowed) sooner.
Read the fine print to see if your lender charges prepayment penalty fees. In many cases, early payments can be worth the effort and the savings on interest.
