      @@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.

    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.

      For sure. My only concern is that America is a big country with 50 states each with its own constitution and government. 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

    Should I sell first or buy first?
    I would need a large heated storage and an air b&b if I sell first while I look for a house.
    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 місяців тому

      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 😊

      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.

    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
      @ShaheedahHill  7 місяців тому +2

      Yes, it is still worth it. If you do lump some payments you can still pay it off earlier. The calculator will calculate lump sum payments as well. Thank you for watching.

    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 місяці тому

      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

    If you are already locked in for a 30 years fixed mortgage can you still do this by paying extra each month into your principle based on what you have available as cash each month i.e. $100. $200, or sometimes even $500 for the month? Or this has to be setup initially with your lender? Thank you.

    Its nice and a relief to paid off the house mortgage and have that extra money in your pocket but the home will never belong to you. As soon you stop paying taxes the county will put you on the street. I believe is better use the loan interest for tax deductions and pay the house with tax returns while saving your money or investing it in something else. Then once you pass the home to loan value, when no longer have enough interest for deduction, because now you are paying more principal than interest then you use the money you saved to get it paid off as soon as you can.

      In most cases you will have to send in a separate payment specifically applied to your principal balance. Contact your mortgage company or go to your online account to see what options you have.
