Joe Au Use HELOC to paydown mortgage fast

In Canada, for example, the average mortgage term is 5-years, so every 5-years you renew your mortgage and have the opportunity to pay down as much as you would like (if you wanted to pay more than the payment restrictions of a fixed-rate mortgage).If you want to pay down your mortgage more quickly and cannot afford to increase your payment, simply switching from the default monthly mortgage payment to accelerated bi-weekly payments will reduce your amortization by ~12% (the extra payment per year from the accelerated part) and reduce the overall interest paid by slightly more (~14%).Naturally, if you increase the bi-weekly payment, you will pay down the mortgage more quickly.
