      @@myrianb8596 We bought a house out in the suburbs that was affordable enough that we knew if we needed to we could use only one of our incomes to make the mortgage payment. So that left us with enough money left over from the other person's income to apply extra payments towards the principal every month. So, basically, we turned a 30-year mortgage into a 15-year (or 14 rather because we really had a goal of paying it off quick!)

    Our plan was to have our house paid off the same month my husband retired. He ended up retiring 2 years early, so that changed our plan. We are now on track to have it paid off at the end of 2026.
    Of course we will still have taxes and insurance so we will be saving about $600 a month. Then our next goal is to get our car loan paid off early. I can’t wait!!!

      It depends. I put additional payments on my principal every bi-weekly paycheck on a 2.88% fixed mortgage. But I put a lot more on my 401k that gives me 13 5%. Plus employer gives us free money if we put minimum 6% of our salary to our 401k. Put your money where it has max benefit. If you have high interest credit card balance than your mortgage interest, put your money there first.

    I intend on refinancing my home in about 4 yrs when rates drop and my income increases by 4K/ month, back to where it was several yrs ago. Take that re-fi money + roughly $150K cash and buy my Forever Home cash in Maryland. That is called being retired, b/c I'll have no real expenses each month. Groceries + utilities + gas + home & car insurance + misc will never total more than 2500/ month, which will be easily income coming from the 2-unit rental home + whatever other income stream(s)I have goin on.

    Should you pay off your mortgage early. YES!!!! The idea that you can make more money by investing that extra payment is not new. Financial advisors will tell you that investing is better rather than sending the extra payment. I wonder why. But it's just math. It's not reality. Most people will never invest that extra payment. My mortgage was paid off in 8 years, and it feels fantastic!!!! I used the velocity banking strategy.

      my investments are automatically withdrawn. every week to index funds and monthly to 401k. i still hedge my bet and make the extra mortgage payment each year. i guess i'll just have to wait and see if those investments can beat my mortgage rate in the next decade.

      @@MFFL674I'm sure it will pay off for you. If done right, you should get a better rate than the mortgage. Based on the math, I'll take investing over paying off a mortgage. But there's something about the peace of mind. The grass just feels a little better under my feet knowing that it's mine (aside from the taxes and insurance that I have to pay each year).

    Although paying off your mortgage is a financially smart way to becoming debt free, please be aware that even if you pay off your mortgage, the federal government still own your home and the land it sits on. Defaulting on paying your real estate taxes will give the government the right to seize your home. In essence, although you may hold the deed to your home, it is never yours 100%. It will behoove you to pay your taxes faithfully when it’s due.

      On Sunday, I am coming out with a "Wealth Weekends" video that goes over 12 things you need to establish weath for the long term. I would recommend a high yield savings account for your 3-6 months of expenses - now thats about 4-5% interest you can earn, then you should max out a 401K or 403B to the match if there is one at your job and then open a Roth IRA. On Sundays I will begin to talk about more personal finance topics. Thanka for asking.

    Good info. If house paid off, just think of a house payment amount each month going into savings instead and your are not paying some bank or credit union interest, you can be earning interest or investment gains on that money. You can buy a 6 month certificate now that pays 5% and just keep rolling that over and it is safe. Then you have ready funds for home repair or pay cash for a vehicle when you need it, the advantages of having a paid for home go on and on.

    Thank you for this information. What if you apply money throughout the year towards the principal of your mortgage loan but it doesn't add up to the full amount of an extra mortgage payment? For example mortgage payment $1900.00 per month & one could only afford $1500.00 towards the principle. Is it still worth it? Or not? Thank you.

    • @ShaheedahHill

    If you need equity access still have to get a HELOC with a current interest-rate of 13%
    National emergency you’re not accessing that equity
    Otherwise, advice is sound.

    This in-between would cost me thousands.
    If i buy first I would be stuck with two homes to pay for untill I could sell my current home.

    • @ShaheedahHill
      @ShaheedahHill  5 месяцев назад

      You should look for another property, try to put a contingent offer on it, meaning contingent on selling your home. Depending on your market that can work, it works even better if you are buying new construction. You also could sell your house and ask your buyer for a lease back until you close on your home. Start looking for agents and they can walk you through the process, so you can avoid the AirBNB 😊

    I love your videos sis. I will advice you make the purchase amount or home amount example smaller (like 150K - 225K). A lot of people that look like you are not making even 75K a year. And lot of people don't do the math, because the lender will not tell you that you can't afford this home. People home principle and interest is 50% of their take home pay and that is house poor. Encourage smaller home purchase first for first time home buyer and later they can get bigger home with the liquids cash. I know home are expensive these day, but about 30 states you can get a home for 200K.

      I actually appreciated she used that price because I live in FL and the home I’m planning on getting is more expensive than that. She has always advocated for buying a home within budget regardless of what the lender says. It’s important to focus on the principle she’s teaching, this is math and wisdom. Regardless of home price it can be applied to anyone.

I'm recommending she make the prices for the higher living conditions state and lower. At least someone in North/South Dakota, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, etc. can say I have a chance of owning a home. Even big networks do the same by making their example with states like California, New York, etc. You need at least 100k to own a home in those states and how many black families and moms making 100K annually? @@iiixlovexyuhh

    @sharonkeller8367 4 месяца назад +1

    I was told years ago if I made one extra payment a year to the principal that I would essentially save the same amount of time as you mentioned on paying the $210 a month which equals the one payment a year. Is that correct? The reason I ask is because for those with children many receive a tax refund and it would probably be easier to pay the one extra payment of $2528 to the principal rather than the $210 a month. This might work better for those with lower mortgages.

    • @ShaheedahHill
      @ShaheedahHill  4 месяца назад

      Yes, making an extra payment each year is basically equivalent to splitting it up over 12 months. I also recommend if you are getting a large refund to reduce your withholding to get that money in your paycheck each month instead of waiting for your refund. @sharonkeller8367 Thank you for watching
