Joe Au Use HELOC to paydown mortgage fast
11 January 2025 | 420 replies
, let me state a few things I clearly understand:1) The reason interest on a loan is saved is because the principle is paid down, not because of some shell game.  4.5% interest in a mortgage = 4.5% interest in a HELOC.2) It is always beneficial (to some extent) to use a HELOC if the interest rate on the HELOC is lower than the mortgage.3) It is not beneficial to use this method if you spend more than you make every month, if so try Dave Ramsey4) Everyone besides me on BP easily earns a 25%+ ROI on new investments that they buy every day without breaking a sweat, even in today's overheated market, so it's dumb to even think about paying down a 4% mortgage.With that out of the way, at this point I believe in the value of the HELOC.
