FAQ
There's a process to getting the mortgage payoff statement. First, you'll need to contact your lender and let them know you want the information. Depending on your lender, you may have to sign in to an online account, call a helpline, or send a formal letter to start the request process.
Making an extra mortgage payment that isn't intended to be a paydown of your principal can provide a tax break because you're paying more in mortgage interest. This qualifies for a tax break as long as you do it before the end of the calendar or tax year.
The statement is provided by the mortgage servicer and can be requested at any time. Accurate payoff information is crucial for managing financial decisions related to property ownership.
After you have the payoff letter, you can send the final payment to your mortgage lender. Before sending over the funds, ask the mortgage lender how they want to receive them. Depending on your situation, you might choose to transfer or wire the funds. It's a good idea to track the payment to ensure it goes through.
The amount of credit initially extended to the customer in the form of delayed payment is referred to as the “principal balance.” To that may be added late fees or interest rates, in which case the outstanding balance consists of the principal balance plus any interest and late fees.

Ideally, you want your extra payments to go towards the principal amount. However, many lenders will apply the extra payments to any interest accrued since your last payment and then apply anything left over to the principal amount. Other times, lenders may apply extra funds to next month's payment.
