Mortgage done and dusted!

What a weight off our shoulders and a sense of achievement!

On 1st March we were able to transfer all the money over to the Nationwide and call them to say our mortgage is paid! They were pleased for us and asked how we’d celebrate, strange feeling. We didn’t really do much as a celebration but both felt pleased with ourselves having paid this off 4 years early and now have that money to spend. Well, for the first year we will be saving like mad to build up the car money we delved into so as to make up the balance, but that won’t take long to do.

We intend to review how best to deal with our finances now and will have a think about the best savings options. There is always the temptation to get another mortgage and buy a second home, I really don’t know if that’s something we will seriously consider, we shall have to wait and see I guess.

So that’s it – no more mortgage…for now!
