Payoff mortgage early = bad?  By  cover art

Payoff mortgage early = bad?

  • Summary

  • Paying off debt early is considered a “guaranteed return.” But what if you can get better returns elsewhere? Could you use the “extra” you’d put toward paying down your mortgage for other financial goals, like retirement, investing, saving for college, going on vacation, or reaching some other goal?

    While paying off your mortgage early is a noble goal, it’s not the only way. In this episode, we tackle some of the realities—including the reality that not everyone lives in an area where home prices appreciate dramatically over time.
