I didn't and don't want to. My mortgage rate is significantly lower than the rate of inflation, so my bank is essentially giving me free money. Paying it off faster would be insane.
- gt565k 4y agoThis needs to be at the top. If you locked in a 3% or under interest rate for 30 years it’s literally illogical to pay off your mortgage. That money would be better put to use in another investment or holding cash in a HYSA that yields over 3%. The sub 5-6% interest rates were a result of the housing crash. Prior to 2008/2009 the rates were pretty much where they are now. No one can for sure tell if we’ll ever see rates so low again. Cheap/low interest debt is good when compare to inflation.
