What Is Bi-Weekly Mortgage Calculator with Extra Payments?
A Bi-weekly Mortgage Calculator is a tool that uses an amortization schedule where the mortgage payment is done bi-weekly, i.e. every two weeks. A borrower will pay 26 times in a year when repaying their loan.
If someone takes a loan for 30 years in bi-weekly payment frequency, they have to pay their mortgage payment for (26*30)=780 times to repay the loan where both principal and accrued interest will be deducted accordingly every time.
If the borrower’s income increases during the loan repayment period, they might consider an early payoff of the loan, like closing the loan within 25 years by making some extra payments.
What Is Accelerated Bi-weekly Payment?
An accelerated bi-weekly payment is similar to a regular bi-weekly payment as it is also done every two weeks. Here, we assume each month has four weeks. So, to calculate accelerated biweekly payment, monthly payment is calculated with monthly interest rate and all necessary calculations based on monthly payment frequency. The monthly mortgage payment is then divided by two to get the accelerated bi-weekly payment.

- For unscheduled extra payments, insert them manually in the Extra Payment (Irregular) column of the Amortization table.
- Once you’ve entered all the information, a summary table will appear. This table displays all the key outputs, including the time and potential interest savings you can achieve with extra payments. You’ll also get the full amortization table, which provides a detailed breakdown of each payment, allowing you to track every transaction throughout the loan term. Additionally, a summary chart offers a visual representation of the mortgage repayment process.

Hi – I love what you built here…. thank you. Ive been trying to use your calculator and can never get the math quite right and I realized why. Its because in your formula, I am literally paying every 2 weeks, however Im with Chase, and they just hold my first payment, and dont apply it till they receive my second payment. Ive tried hacking what you build but I break it every time. Any chance you can show me a version where the bank only receives my money every 4 weeks, not every 2. Thanks in advance. -Jon
