If you pay off your mortgage early, or overpay by more than your lender allows, you may have to pay an early repayment charge. This is because your lender will consider any interest that was due on the rest of your mortgage agreement.
You might also face an early repayment charge if you remortgage your home with a new lender during the term of your current mortgage deal.
