Martin Lewis is advising people to conduct three important checks before deciding to overpay on their mortgage.
The Money Saving Expert founder, who previously shared tips on how people can save thousands of pounds by overpaying on their mortgage, highlighted three key things to consider before making an overpayment.
One of the tips involves checking for any overpayment penalties, as they could potentially negate any financial benefits.
