I took the liberty and calculated 10 years with 1.1% interest and 3% repayment. Without special repayments, there is still an outstanding debt of €465k. If the interest rate in 10 years is a ridiculous 3% for another 10 years fixed, then you will have to continue paying a €2300 installment for the outstanding debt. After another 10 years you still have an outstanding debt of €300k (mind you, without special repayments).
That means special repayments will always be mandatory for you every year for the next 20 years, amounting to €15-20k. Shocking.
Meanwhile, you earn barely €1400 more than we do and tie yourself to a loan almost twice as high.
If I pay a special repayment of €20,000 only from my bonus and assume an income increase of 0% for both of us, according to your above calculation we still have an outstanding debt of €265,000 after 10 years and €5,000 net per month left to live/pay off the loan for the next 10 years. I also find the thought really shocking.
