House Mortgage Update

April 4th, 2007 at 11:15 pm

I paid my mortgage on the house earlier this week and it posted today. I am officially into year six of a fifteen year mortgage. I have paid 60.75 months worth so far.

My new mortgage total is $34,532.67. 1.5 more payments worth and I will be below $34,000! Exciting. For me anyway.

I'm envious. Our 20-year $175000 mortgage seems so large in comparison, and I was feeling great about being in our fourth year of it. What year did Whatcom County real estate start taking off?

My excitement is that our balance is at $101,000 so very shortly we'll drop from 6 figures to 5 figures. I'm looking forward to that.

Doesn't it feel great to see that number go down more and more very months?

That is great! If my math is correct, you'll be mortgage free by the time you're 46! Way to go!

Whatcom County real estate took off about 7 years ago, shortly after we bought the house. By the time we put a mortgage on it 4 years ago, our house had gained $20,000 in equity. Now, its worth $35,000 more than we paid for it. You can still find houses for under $100,000 out here, but its getting rarer. In Bellingham, Lynden and Ferndale, you can't. Even in the trailer parks.
