What to expect from your first mortgage payment
First payments can be higher than your ongoing monthly payment. This is because it'll include interest from the date we released the funds, up to the end of that month, plus your payment for the following month.
For example: If we release the funds on the 12 May, your first mortgage payment in June will include interest for 12 to 31 May, as well as your mortgage payment for June.
Information:
In some cases you may notice that your first payment is actually lower than what was shown in your mortgage offer.
This is because the payment quoted in your offer will assume your mortgage completes on the first of the month.

Overpaying your mortgage
