    As of today, 30 yr mortgages are about 6.50% vs 9.37% for a HELOC, or 44% higher. There is no scenario where borrowing at a higher rate to pay down a lower rate loan makes sense. if you can refinance your first mortgage at a lower rate than your current loan, at little to no cost, then doing so would make sense. Other than that, pay down the loan as rapidly as you can. no need for any of this funky sleight of hand. It's telling that none of these videos include the payments and interest on the HELOC in their analysis.

    • @drumdevilbd

      They are different types of interest. A mortgage has a front loaded amortization schedule. A LOC uses a a daily avg balance like a credit card does. The key to VB is throw your ENTIRE paycheck, as soon as you get paid, into the LOC, thus lowering the avg daily balance, and reducing your interest. Then pay for your expenses out of the LOC. You can have a higher interest rate on the LOC (most do) and still pay lower interest.

But with the with expenses coming out throughout the month, the net paydown is still just your remaining excess cashflow (ie. income minus expenses). The average daily balance is going to be nearly identical. If you make 3000 and spend 2500, you've only paid down 500 regardless of when you apply that payment.

    If it sounds like a scam, and looks like a scam, smells like a scam, it probably is a scam. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is. Free advice is worth what you pay for. For credit cards, there are 0% balance transfer cards out there. You just have to pay the balance transfer fee which is usually around 3%. Then pay it off before the real interest rate kicks in. Mortgages do require the borrower to pay the majority of interest early in the life of the loan. That's why it's important to choose a home investment they will last for many years, and keep it long enough to build equity and enjoy the benefit of inflation, while keeping the same mortgage payment. Each year that own my home, my mortgage payment lowers, because rents and home values increase around me. Also, I rent a home out, so my tenants pay my mortgage.

For the fact that cash flow is what pays down debt. So gained cash flow helps with paying down debt, which lowers the amount of interest paid on debts.

      @organizer14 No. It is a fancy term for "give me lots of money and I will let you borrow some of it back as long as you pay it back, and I keep the interest."" It's like having a savings account at a bank where you make monthly deposits. They take a huge commission for the privilege of letting you open this account. If you want your money back, you must take out a loan and pay them interest. If you die, they keep 100% of what is in your account. Oh, there's also a life insurance death benefit along with your account. The reason the mandatory deposits / premiums are so high is because you're paying for both this wonderful savings account and the death benefit. Just don't die however, because if you do, all your heirs get is the death benefit. Oh, as long as you keep paying those mandatory deposits / premiums, you still get the death benefit if you die at the age of 100, when, of course, your dependents will be still relying on you for support. What a great deal, right? It is no wonder that about 80% of whole life insurance policy holders end up surrendering their policies early when they realize that they are wasting huge sums of money. The insurance salesman doesn't care, however, because they got their fat commissions up front.

    Assets minus Liabilities = Equity (AKA Capital) The premium and the loans are liabilities the Asset is the the insurance. This is where the funny business starts. What is left at the death of a person may still qualify for tax on the estate. Depending on the value of the home and other things not in the insurance policy. So sure the death benefit is tax free to the next person, but the estate will still be taxed. The beneficiary make get that income but they would then have to pay some of that to collect the property that was not covered. If they are doing infinite banking then they buy more insurance and take out the loan against it to buy the property. Then they are paying loans back on the same system. It is a loan treadmill. The whole thing is a sick joke. Income swallowed by premiums and loan repayments at interest forever teaching your family debt bondage to pumping up insurance company bottom lines and paying more for everything.

    Yes i like velocity banking since it essentially get you not to park your money in a savings acct and yet paying higher rates on other loans. 1) It forces you to take that extra cash and pay off higher rates loans 2) you still have access to cash via revolving credit card or Home equity line of credit in case of emergency 3) BUT you don’t save that much interest on your HELOC by parking your salary in there since the rate on HELOC is high than mortgage usually and you don’t keep balance on HELOC to zero all month 4) you could achieve same result by making extra payments to your loans but it is more cumbersome plus everyone (including the banks tell that you must have savings). No you need access to cash like the large multinational corporation with their revolving credits (which are paid down by year end). 5) This type of approach is for folks that are not too familiar with finance (thus you need to keep watching the video for views and of course they sell you a service)6) HELOC are best since CREDIT CARD have limitations as to what you can pay (no mortgage etc…) 7. keep in mind that of the interest on your HELOC is higher than the mortgage than it only makes sense to pay a certain amount of mortgage at a time with your HELOC due the fact the interest is different but you only pay interest on helov thus increase your cash flor

    First, I thought higher interest rate on HELOC doesn't make sense instead of mortgage. Later, I did calculations. Paying off the HELOC in 10 years save lots of interest over 25 years mortgage even at a higher rate! The things I like about having a smaller HELOC vs mortgage: flexible payment, we can pay interest only or put all cash flow into it and immediately increase monthly cash flow. With a mortgage, we pay extra lumpsum prepayment but monthly payment remains the same until we pay off the mortgage. The key is to have a large cash flow and put all cashflow into the HELOC unless there's emergency.

    This has got to be the dumbest strategy I have ever heard of.

So what you might save on one side of the coin you will pay on the other. You cannot borrow your way out of debt. You would be better off just paying an extra $500/month without the HELOC.

I am putting aside the notion of "front loaded interest" sold to gullible audiences by VB scammers (hint: mortgages ARE NOT front loaded and ARE simple interest) Now the average household income in the US is about $6 000 per month. Let us take a BEST case scenario. In this best case the person receives this $6 000 on the first day of the month and they are able to pay ALL their expenses from the HELOC on the last day of the month , thus keeping a favorable balance of $6 000 the full year (or almost) At 4% interest rate this saves them $240 per year, or 20$ per month. However because this BEST case is never achieved the savings will be more around $10 per month. So what interest rate difference do you think you are "killing" with about $10 per month?

It’s literally the same and even worse to use the HELOC as it’s higher interest. The one advantage is you might be less inclined to spend money as you are always indebted to the HELOC so feel like you are broke all the time. But again, it’s literally the same as using leftover money to prepay your mortgage

      It is actually more expensive than just paying extra on the mortgage. Depending on the HELOC rate it is even more expensive than just putting the money aside in a safe deposit (such as CDs at 4%) and then making a large chunk payment on the mortgage at a time of your choosing On top of that you have fees and extra risks with the HELOC (how are all those HELOCs from 2 years back doing with the rate increase ? Not one VB advocate talks about that). Plus quite frankly with easy money accessible in the HELOC , those with little discipline will be tempted to increase their debt for purposes other than paying down the mortgage Alltogether this is a catastrophe

    Dont put $500 extra on a HELOC and tell people hey look i paid my debt faster. Of course because you're putting more money.

      The difference is between simple interest and amortized interest. Amortized will taze you.

    Will this work on a credit card with a zero balance

      @ConceptsMadeSimple 5 месяцев назад

      Not to the same extent. It can help in the sense that you will likely earn either cash back or points on all credit card purchases, but since no interest is being paid, it can not help lower an expense that does not exist.

    I’m so confused! Why not just pay the extra $500 with the mortgage payment and just budget $500 less for your expenses? I’m so lost

      Good question. We have another video on our channel that goes in-depth on the differences between Velocity Banking and making an extra payment. This will likely help clear up your confusion. ruclips.net/video/LsBQBVnKsTE/видео.html

    Inventing in the stock market or other investments instead of paying off the mortgage creates unrest in you mind. I believe paying of the mortgage is the best mental piece of mind.

    If you get paid once a month, this is how it may go. If you’re paid weekly or bi-weekly, you pay all income when it’s received towards the LOC, reducing its daily average balance and the amount you pay interest on. If you make extra payments towards the loan, you can’t use that money for expenses anymore if anything comes up like a car repair. On an LOC, it’s essentially a built in emergency fund that you don’t need to build up for months. Typically you wouldn’t put the whole LOC amount towards the debt (you need room for monthly expenses and cushion), so say 70% or however much you could afford to pay if between 9-12 months with your excess cash flow. That way you aren’t getting trapped with higher interest for longer. Having the LOC for emergencies is the biggest upside as opposed to making additional payments. In a scenario where you are making the extra payment each month, you have no emergency fund to fall back on (assuming we’re starting from day one without savings. If we have an emergency fund, it probably took at least 6-12 months to build up, which causes you to pay more interest on your loan) you would have to resort to taking out another loan or hope you understand how credit works and use that. If you have the LOC and understand that it can help OR hurt you, you can use it for the emergency and then keep velocity banking it down. This is why I wouldn’t use the whole LOV amount towards the loan. Good overview though at least without going into all of the variables. All else being equal, it his situation is comparing the best case scenario for extra payments to the worst case scenario for velocity banking
