I think I’m beginning to understand. This system is about having control over the amount of interest we pay. If we can control the amount interest we pay, we can direct more money to the principal with each payment.

[@TheKwakBrothers]

Bingo!!! 😁

[@samiraqurbani3324]

So the HELOC helps save interest and lowers your amortization. You’re putting in your income and taking it out again for expenses, which essentially brings your amount owing on the HELOC back to $20,000. How do you pay the $20,000 off faster? You’re making your monthly mortgage payments but now have an additional HELOC loan payment alongside it. You must have extra monthly cash flow to be able to pay off the HELOC in exchange for less interest/amortization on your mortgage.

[@Superior_Adventures24]

Did you use equity on the same home or HELOC from different property?

[@TheKwakBrothers]

Yes, you’ve got the gist! The strategy involves using the HELOC to make lump-sum payments towards your mortgage principal, then using your income to pay down the HELOC, and repeating the process. Your cash flow is key here. By directing your income into the HELOC and only pulling out what you need for expenses, you effectively reduce the principal faster. This helps in saving on interest and shortening the amortization. For a more detailed explanation, check out this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fnrZnmRtndSlZ9U.

[@castlerc]

Use your credit card for your expenses throughout the month. Pay your credit card off at the end of the month using your Heloc account. Sounds good, I’m going to try it.

[@km969]

What banks do you recommend for a fixed HELOC?

[@ripvanwinkle3432]

Op should watch the video. 🙄

[@jermmt]

Correct me if I am wrong but I believe that the UK has a similar program to Aus and NZ called an Endowment Policy that’s attached to the mortgage

[@backslash1233]

Quick question. Is there a limit to the amount we should put toward our mortgage principal from the HELOC? 10-20k seems manageable, but 100-150k seems overwhelming. Should we not put more than 20k or does it depend on our income level? Your guidance would be greatly appreciated!

[@TheKwakBrothers]

Great question! Generally, starting with manageable chunks around $10-20k is a good idea. The exact amount depends on your income and expenses. You don’t have to go up to $100-150k right away. It's important to maintain financial flexibility. For more personalized advice, check out this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpqaZoKGmrOqnKs.

[@kangjin0807]

Let's say 3.5% mortgage and 6% HELOC. Positive cash flow goes into prepayment to the mortgage vs Velocity banking. Is Velocity banking still faster to pay off debt? I think one of the key components is favorable HELOC interest rate..

[@TheKwakBrothers]

Great question! Even with a higher HELOC rate (6%), the strategy can still be beneficial. Velocity banking uses your positive cash flow to reduce the principal on a daily basis, which can lead to significant interest savings over time. This is because the cash flow continuously lowers the HELOC balance, reducing overall interest costs faster compared to just making extra payments on your mortgage. For a clearer explanation, you might want to check out our detailed video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fnrZnmRtndSlZ9U.

[@MrEZW]

I don't see the advantage here over simply making an extra payment towards principal every month. When compared to that, this seems like more of a disadvantage... Or am I missing something?

[@TheKwakBrothers]

The advantage isn't just about making an extra payment. By using our strategy, you leverage a financial product to pay down your mortgage principal more effectively. This allows you to potentially save thousands in interest and reduce your mortgage term significantly-much more than just making extra payments would do. For a deeper dive into how this works, check out this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpqaZoKGmrOqnKs.

[@MrEZW]

@TheKwakBrothers in the video you talk about saving interest on the HELOC, but if I don't use a HELOC, I don't have to worry about saving interest on it at all. Also, with a second mortgage, you're subjected to two different forms of interest. I've watched three of your videos on this topic & I don't see how this method is advantageous over simply making extra principal payments.

[@Nsmithq99]

[@brandonbrooks6780]

Yeah it is, more “smoke and mirrors” actually. You could easily just make extra payments on a conventional mortgage with a lower interest rate and you would actually pay off your home faster because less of your money would be going to interest and instead would be attacking the principal. It’s a very compelling strategy the way it’s explained but it’s definitely not more efficient, the math is actually super simple and it doesn’t add up.

[@Iamjoeycross]

@@brandonbrooks6780you could, but chunking allows you to throw a bigger amount at the principal sooner than later. You have to make the money to make the extra payment. Whereas with the HELOC you’re using “other” money you don’t technically have right now. It’s also a safe haven in case your monthly cashflow changes. When you make that extra payment on a conventional mortgage. It’s gone forever. When I make it with the HELOC, I get access to it again because a mortgage is a one way street and HELOC is a two street.

[@Iamjoeycross]

It’s actually not if you understand money. Do you also think using a credit card to pay all monthly bills (where you change the due date to the end of month) is too complex as well? You’re effectively allowing your own money to sit all month long (in a HSA or even a broker account - earning interest - while never paying credit card interest) while paying all bills at the same time as opposed to paying each individual bill during a given money from a debit/checking account? That’s part of this longer “complex” scenario. But if you can under stand doing that, then it’s the same thing as using a HELOC vs a mortgage.

[@brandonbrooks6780]

@@Iamjoeycross I was all in on this strategy - even switched my conventional mortgage to a 1st lien HELOC. Then I started doing the math like this guy kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z6iue39nd7hsq6csi=SdCBufv49YlSqtE9

Can you put this in simple words and on paper? I want to do this but feel I'm not smart enough. Please help.

[@TheKwakBrothers]

I totally get where you're coming from, and I'm here to help! Our strategy is about using a financial product to pay off your mortgage faster. Here's a simple example: Imagine you have a mortgage and a line of credit. You use your paycheck to reduce the balance on the credit line, which also has your living expenses. Each month, this helps save on interest and shortens the payoff time.

[@themillennialwealthcreator]

Thanks for breaking this down. Question about the daily interest though just to make sure I'm understanding this correctly. Is the daily interest not applied to the balance immediately, therefore increasing the balance the interest rate is applied to? Or is it that not the case because the interest rate is annualized?

[@TheKwakBrothers]

Great question! The interest is indeed calculated daily, but it's applied in an annualized manner. This means while interest is accrued daily based on your balance, the rate you see is an annual rate divided by 365 days. This allows for a more accurate calculation of interest owed each month. If you want to dive deeper into this, our webinar covers it in more detail: acceleratedbanking.com/webinar-registration-515174331635781964831sl=youtube.

[@hppyabuela]

So is sort of like that velocity system with a HELOC.

[@TheKwakBrothers]

Exactly! Our strategy does involve using a HELOC. It leverages your cash flow to pay down your mortgage more efficiently. If you’re curious about how it works in detail, check out our explainer video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpqaZoKGmrOqnKs

[@russellmavis3220]

Wouldn't moving it to a first lien position HELOC be better that's what I did works great!

[@coldwater5707]

Interesting. I opened up a HELOC years ago that I have not touched. So to clarify, I could pay a few K every month, pay that heloc balance off at day 28, and I won’t pay interest on that HELOC? I think I have about 6 yrs left on HELOC?

[@TheKwakBrothers]

It's great that you're considering using your existing HELOC to work towards paying off your mortgage faster! Using the strategy you've described-paying down the HELOC balance before the interest accrues-can indeed be an effective way to manage the financial product without incurring much interest, depending on the specific terms of your HELOC. Just to clarify, most HELOCs accrue interest daily on the outstanding balance, so if you pay off your balance before your statement period closes, you minimize the amount of interest charged. However, it's important to understand the specific terms of your HELOC regarding how interest is calculated and any potential fees associated with payments or balance refreshes. If you're considering using this strategy and have about 6 years left on your HELOC, it might be a good time to review your approach to ensure it aligns with your financial goals. If you’re looking for more detailed guidance or examples of how this can work, attending one of our webinars could be beneficial.

[@Nsmithq99]

To clarify, no, there is no grace period on a HELOC. Interest will accrue from the day you take the advance until the day you pay it off. So if the rate is higher than your mortgage, you are using more expensive dollars to pay down a less expensive loan.

Isn't there a penalty if you pay more towards your mortgage than what was initially arranged

[@laurasonnier]

[@michaelb.8953]

Great question! Prepayment penalties depend on the terms of your specific mortgage agreement. Some mortgages do have penalties for paying off the loan early or making larger-than-scheduled payments.

How a heloc will help paying faster when the interest on helocs are higher than the rate in the house I want you to pay?

[@TheKwakBrothers]

The strategy of using a financial product with a higher interest rate than your mortgage might seem counterintuitive at first glance. However, it fundamentally revolves around the way these products are structured and how you can manipulate your cash flow for debt reduction. The notion here is not merely about the interest rates, but more so about flexibility and the capability to reduce principal faster than with traditional long-term amortized loans. By strategically channeling your cash flow through the line of credit, you can frequently reduce the principal amount owing, thereby reducing the compound interest accumulating over time. For a deeper understanding of how paying off a low fixed-rate mortgage with a potentially higher rate line of credit can still be beneficial, you might find this video explanation helpful: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fnrZnmRtndSlZ9U. Here, the strategy is detailed with mathematical examples showing the potential benefits despite the higher interest rate.

[@wwmassey]

I think you not only consider interest rate, but also time and balance. If you are throwing your paycheck in the HELOC every 2 weeks, it really doesn’t have time to accrue much interest, because you are constantly knocking the balance down. If you are 2 income household, then you have 4 checks going into the HELOC to knock down the balance even faster.

[@muralles6]

Interesting. Have a 125k mortgage left on 2.5% with 9 years left.

[@TheKwakBrothers]

That's great that you have a low interest rate and a relatively short timeframe left! If you’re interested in exploring how you can potentially pay off your mortgage even faster and save on interest, you might find our strategy useful. It can help optimize your payments. For a detailed understanding, check out this explainer video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpqaZoKGmrOqnKs.

[@helloworld4259]

Doing this method you can payoff your home much faster. But you end up paying more in interest cause of the HELOC rate. He does not include that in his examples and treats the HELOC as a 0% interest rate which definitely is not the case. So if you don’t mind paying more in interest and just want to payoff you home or any other debt faster this does work. I did this with a 5 year car loan and paid it off in two years but paid about $200 more in interest. That’s not a lot more but for a house expect to pay a couple thousand more.

[@karthykrp4610]

yes u r rite. concept he says on closing mortgage outstanding with HELOC LOAN but still liable for 10 percent HELOC loan.

[@TheKwakBrothers]

It’s great to hear about your experience with your car loan, and I appreciate your perspective on the interest aspect. It's indeed vital to consider the overall interest paid when evaluating financial strategies. The Accelerated Banking strategy, often discussed in our detailed resources, does consider the interest rates of financial products such as lines of credit. While these rates may be higher than a conventional mortgage, the key advantage lies in the flexibility these products offer - allowing for a more dynamic approach to principal reduction, which can counteract the higher interest rate effects over time. For a deeper understanding of how this works, even with higher rates, I recommend watching the specific video that addresses your concern about paying off a low fixed-rate mortgage with a higher rate line of credit: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fnrZnmRtndSlZ9U. This video explains the mathematical benefits and showcases examples that might clarify the potential savings in both interest and time, despite the apparent higher rates.

[@ripvanwinkle3432]

You obviously don't understand velocity banking. Do some more research. The earlier you start the better result.

[@Nsmithq99]

You are correct that this method will cost you more in interest, hence it will actually take longer to pay off the loan because you are spending money on interest that would otherwise go to principal.
