I took advantage of all the prepayment privileges my lender offered--I paid my mortgage accelerated weekly, doubled up payments, made lump-sum payments with freelance and rental income and increased my payments yearly. I maximized my prepayment privileges every single year, until I had paid off my mortgage just over three years later. [2017] - Sean Cooper
