These tools help you understand financial mechanics and explore different scenarios. They are a starting point for discussion with a Money Mentor, not a complete financial strategy.

First-Lien HELOC One-Pot

Explore Your One-Pot Fit

Compare keeping your mortgage, applying the same surplus as extra principal, and a first-lien HELOC One-Pot using the same household budget.

Before you begin This tool is for educational exploration. It does not determine whether a strategy is appropriate for you. Review your results with a Real Money Masters Money Mentor and our team before making financial changes.

Example numbers are filled in. Replace them with your own figures; results update as you type.

Scenario
Mortgage
From your latest mortgage statement.
The loan part of your payment. Enter taxes and insurance in the next field.
Household budget
After taxes and payroll deductions.
Everything else you spend each month, including other debt payments.
Money you set aside each month that stays outside the line.
HELOC
New borrowing you would add to the line each month beyond your regular expenses.

A HELOC is secured by your home. Failure to repay can result in foreclosure. Variable rates, fees, future draws, lender restrictions, and changes in income or expenses can materially affect results. Access to additional credit may be reduced or suspended under the lender’s terms. Compare this approach with keeping your existing mortgage and applying the same available cash flow toward principal.

These estimates depend on the information entered and simplified assumptions. Actual costs, rates, available credit, policy values, and results may differ. This tool does not provide a personalized recommendation, loan approval, or insurance illustration.

Do not rely on these results alone to open or replace a loan, purchase insurance, borrow against a policy, or implement a financial strategy. A Real Money Masters Money Mentor will help you review your assumptions and coordinate a team assessment of whether the approach fits your circumstances. Consult your lender, licensed insurance professional, and tax or legal advisor as appropriate.

Velocity Banking comparison

Model a credit-line strategy against applying the same surplus directly to the debt. Moving a balance to a line of credit does not eliminate it.

Targeted debt
Line of credit
Each lump sum moved from the line to the debt. Enter 0 to model no line strategy.
Monthly budget
What is left each month after all expenses, including the current debt payment.

Moving debt to a line of credit does not eliminate it. Evaluate the combined balances, interest, fees, and required payments across all accounts. Savings are not assured. A higher credit-line rate, reduced cash flow, or additional borrowing may increase costs or extend repayment. If the credit line is secured by your home, failure to repay can result in foreclosure.

Shown on your policy statement or a carrier-issued illustration.

Whole life insurance requires premium payments and includes insurance costs. Dividends are not guaranteed. Policy loans accrue interest and reduce available net policy values and death benefits. Excessive borrowing can cause a policy to lapse and may create tax consequences. Tax treatment depends on the policy and circumstances, including modified endowment contract status. Review the actual policy terms and a carrier-issued illustration with a licensed insurance professional.
