My wife and I paid off our 30 yr mortgage (360k) in less than 7 years. We saved a large sum until that sum equaled the remaining balance of the loan. I calculated we saved over 125k in interest over the life of the loan. We sacrificed for 7 years to have freedom for the next 30 years plus.

[@Davidmallen429]

You saved over 125k in interest, but if you would have invested that same money over 30 years, you would have made A LOT more than 125k.

I apologize for not being clear. When I mention making extra payments it means you are paying towards your Principal. When you pay your mortgage payment, any amount paid over the payment must be allocated towards the Principal OR the escrow balance. You can’t make another payment towards a future payment so it’s not necessary to say “make sure not to make multiple payments”.

Very good video. As a reminder, 1. Ask your lender about buying down points on your mortgage interest rate (a Point cost is about 1% of the loan balance) . The point will save you more than double the cost and it’s deductible that year. 2 INSIST upon a mortgage WITHOUT an early pay off penalty. (early payment penalty’s do exist in some contracts ) 3. divide your mortgage payment by 12 and add that amount into your monthly payment. This will effectively have the same savings as the 15 year & bi weekly mortgage but without the legal pressure of an extra payment 4 in the memo column of your check, write. The date & amount : Nov:2023, xtra principal (and that $ amount). This gives you a written & legal receipt. In the 2 years since you made this video, interest rate have soared up. Just remember, What goes up, MUST come down. 🙏🏽

Not sure if it is a Canadian thing but I bought a condo two years ago and just recently started looking into the details with the lender (through the ATB website). The first 18 months of paying a mortgage went 100% towards interest with nothing coming off the principal. Now, thankfully, 100% of each mortgage payment is going toward the principal. Currently at a fixed 1.74% fixed rate and rates have now gone up to 6% so I am doing whatever I can to pay as much off before my first renewal in late 2026.

I did my escrow when I purchased my home 22 years ago. I just sold my house and will be moving later this year when new home is built. Yes- I do everything I can pay off fast as I can! I plan on doing my own escrow again on the new house. This way, monthly amount is low and same. Granted now I do save the money I would have paid on taxes for school, MUD and county every month in my savings so that I pay it off at the end of the year. However, I rather have it vs the lender! Ha! That is why I also plan to do 15 years since mortgage rate is much lower and to pay off faster that way! I do the same for my car- My car payment is $560 a month for 3 years and I pay $150 every Friday but I eventually pay $600 before due date. Brings down the principal down faster and pay less than loan period. Almost finished now and will finish it before the year is over vs March of next year. Yes Javier- paying off mortgage or car loan quicker if u can!! We can do this folks!! Great info as always.. what happened it got cut off??

[@pioneer7777777]

We're basically doing this but without any willpower engaged - we did a 20 year loan instead of 30. So we end up doing an extra $285/mo, which cuts through the principal quickly. Lines up with the "A Tier" you put in this video. The reduced flexibility of cash flow does hurt a little bit, but I think overall it's not a bad set up, and it feels good to have our principal dropping so quickly, like $8400 per year it goes down now.

My last house was paid off in 16 years. I paid extra principle every month while saving as much as I could. Once in a while when I was comfortable with my savings total and what I had planned (vacations, major purchases, etc) I'd make a large principle payment in addition. Two months later I had to take early retirement and my income dropped $30k. I was ok because my house cost me $100 a month between insurance and property tax. Now that I'm working again, in a new state, that house is rented and I'm getting over $1000 a month from it. That helped me save up for a good down payment on a house here. I'm planning to live there a couple of years, wait for the housing market to figure out what it's doing, while saving up for a down payment, and buy what I actually want. This house, will make a great rental. I believe in getting the 30 yr loan and pay it off as fast as possible. If you sell early, you get more money back. If you stay in the house, when you pay it off you essentially get a salary increase.

I paid off my home by doing $600 towards principle per month. After doing that I think I made a mistake. My rate was 2.875%. I could have invested 600 a month and earned 9% return. I say 9 because that's what I am earning on my investments. So I missed out on a ton of compounding interest by paying my loan off early.

[@myriadcorp]

@@Mcbeef34 using a compounding interest calculator if I put $600 into investment for 30 years and earned 9% I would have 932k. Granted I ended up paying the home off earlier than 30 years In my case I had a 150k mortgage for 15 years at 2.875. I paid it off in 9 years. I saved 15k in interest. If I put that same $600 in my investments I would have made 100k in 9 years. So that's a loss of 85k I could have made in investing. If I kept doing $600 for 15 years I would have made 230k and paid 15k more interest on the loan. Tell me which has the better outcome? When rates are so low it's not smart paying it off fast when you can be earning more with investments. You also lose all the deductions too. I won't make this mistake again.

Hey, great video! What's the calculator used in the video?

[@tprev400]

Good info. Regarding the principle extra payments. You do need to contact your bank and find out the best way to make an extra principal so it gets applied to your principle without complications. For example, my bank requires the full payment to be made prior to any extra principal payment and they should be paid separately. So if your normal payment is on the 1st, you might make the principle payment (additional) on the 20th following the direction of the bank so they know it is to be paid towards the principal. Will vary between banks but don't assume they know what your intentions are. Then follow up for at least the first few months and randomly later to be sure that is what is happening.

That isn't the real number. Look at your loan documents and see loan calculations. Total Interest Percentage (TIP) is over the life of the loan. 2.625% over 360 payments really equals 44.774%. Don't believe me? Check your loan documents.

[@TBIhope]

@@bradleygraves5915Yeah, but the time value of money means that paying off my loan entirely now would actually cost me much more money than just paying 2.75% for the next 27 years.

[@ywkhgqo]

It's not really frontloaded. It's because your principal is so high which is how interest works. The reason your interest goes down as time goes on is because your principal is decreasing.

[@artemaeus]

@@ywkhgqo I mean, I get thats how the system works, but having only a few dollars go to your principal balance across your first several payments (if you're only making the minimum) isn't great.

Thank you for explaining this so well! When I get a mortgage, I may not be able to make extra payments all the time, but I will make it a goal to do so as much as I can. Now that I understand the benefits, it will make me happy to make an extra mortgage payment rather than waste the money on something “fun” or “frivolous.” In fact, extra payments kind of seem like giving myself “free money” in the future because of the interest that I will save in the long run. I love it! I especially like the idea that I am the one who benefits, not the bank, because they won’t get so much profit off my loan.

I lived in my home 8 years and sold it i had 3 years ( actually like 2 and 8 months or something) left. So 11 years would have paid it off.

Should we wait to do the home remodeling after the appraisal?

Hi Javier, quick question, if we had more money than the 20% down for a home, what is the best way to pay into the home? Should we pay more into the downpayment?

[@bailey-k6b]

Of course. The more money you have to pay for the home, the smaller your loan amount will be.

[@toniprande-lemonier6653]

Thanks for the information Javier. I'm starting today.

In a scenario where a loan is paid off early with extra payments applied to the principal (inconsistent times), do you know how to calculate the interest rate (not amount) paid after the loan is paid off? For example, if the term of the loan is 60 months with an interest rate of 6%, but someone paid it off in 50 months? This has proven difficult to find the answer to so any help is greatly appreciated.

Great Video. Thank you for posting.

[@lisanguyen9906]

Thank you for breaking it down. Love your content. What site are you using to break down the principle and interest rate here?

[@JavyVidana]

I googled amarrocaron calculator and used the second link. I think it’s bank rate

[@sonutony2266]

Great video.. Could you please suggest the website you used to calculate the repayment calculation in the video..

[@fishlife7073]

So extra payment would be paid same time as regular payment or pay extra money after you had made regular payments on that particular month ? Thank you

[@hecklers2002]

Excellent video Javi

If you're going to follow this advice, most of the advantage of making additional principle payments comes in the first 5-10 years. After that, the benefits wane considerably.

Infinite banking + velocity banking for the win.

[@framebrain]

Thanks Javier... QQ... what site did you use for your amortization calculator?

[@paulbiniasz2278]

Well done Javier! What site are you using to run your calculations?

[@joshuacoffelt9300]

Javi is there any benefit to paying your first mortgage payment at closing rather than waiting for the due date?

I had a few questions written down and my boy answered them all. TY 10/10

[@bacawaka2813]

I've done this about 2 months ago and figured out what to pay off first, credit card, truck payment, mortgage and I was able to figure out how much extra I need to spend on each to pay off the mortgage in 15 years. Now if I stick to the plan is a different story.

[@nocturneowl2660]

I pay loaded Principal in the first 3years. I am 11.5y ahead of schedule

[@ImAnneJillian]

Would love to see how inflation rates affect these ways. Are we losing money paying it early or we are still saving money despite not considering inflation

[@Vidlife6382]

Hi Javier. Great info. What's the name of that calculation tool you used? This is great.

[@adreaoneal3848]

Great video this help out alot

[@ivanmolina5778]

facts bro! same applies to car loans and student loans do not make minimum payments

[@silverfido069]

You’re the best homie!

[@cerebralvision]

Take a 30 year loan. Treat it like a 15 year in which you take the extra Savings you get and drop it into investments. You'll be able to pay off your entire mortgage way sooner than 15 years since the stock market will return more than 8%.

I’m 18 and wanted to start learning about the whole getting a home thing , u should do a video of the basics . Basically a home buying video for dummies

[@yaboijuan4052]

I'm 25 and I'm closing (buying) my first home in 2 weeks. You'll be ready to buy a house when you have 20% for a down payment and a few thousand dollars extra for closing costs (fees that come with buying a house).

[@dwbonsu3929]
