Next actions
Automate a 1%/year 401(k) escalation
Both incomes are already capturing an employer match, but bumping each contribution 1% a year (starting at your next raises) closes a meaningful chunk of your gap to your target retirement age without changing take-home pay today.
Quick winCheck refinance or recast options on the mortgage
Your 8% rate is well above current averages for well-qualified borrowers — even a modest rate reduction meaningfully lowers your monthly housing cost and speeds up payoff.
Refine your pictureGrow your cash cushion toward 6 months of expenses
Your savings account currently covers a bit over a month of household spending. Directing part of your monthly surplus there first, before extra debt paydown, gives your family room to handle a surprise expense without touching investments.
StrategicInsights

Your cash cushion would only cover about a month of expenses if either income stopped unexpectedly.
You are already capturing your full employer 401(k) match on both incomes — a strong foundation to build on.
Meaningful home equity gives you options (HELOC, downsizing, recasting) that pure renters do not have.
