The HELOC Payoff Spreadsheet, Decoded

A client brings a spreadsheet that promises to pay off a mortgage in a fraction of the time by running every dollar through a line of credit. This one page answers it, with your logic, in writing.

Who it is for: CPAs and advisors whose clients keep bringing the pay-it-off-fast spreadsheet to the meeting.

Why it matters

Where the savings really come from

Strip away the theatre and almost all of the speed-up comes from one thing: extra money reaching the principal early. Send that same surplus straight at the mortgage and the result is close to the same.

Meanwhile the line of credit doing the shuffling usually carries a rate the bank can change, and it can be reduced or frozen. Running all income and spending through one line can also blur the paper trail a deduction depends on.

What the guide covers

  • The risk the spreadsheet hides
