The Problem

Why the traditional mortgage holds you back

01

Your equity is trapped

Wealth sitting in your property that you can't reach without selling or refinancing.

02

Interest is front-loaded

In the early years of a traditional mortgage, most of each payment goes to interest, so the balance barely moves.

03

Your cash sits idle

Money in checking earns little while you pay interest on your mortgage.

How It Works

One structural shift. Two steps.

01

Replace the mortgage with a line of credit

A first-lien line pays off your existing mortgage. Interest is charged only on the balance you actually owe, day by day.

02

Run income and expenses through the line

Every deposit lowers the balance the day it lands, so your cash works against the debt instead of sitting in checking. Expenses draw back out as needed.

“It’s not about the rate. It’s about the structure.”

Illustrative Comparison

What the difference looks like.

30-Year MortgageLine of Credit Structure
Example loan$500,000 @ 5.5%Same $500,000 @ 6.5%, swept with $15,000/mo
Interest paid$522,020 over 30 years~$52,930
Time to pay off30 years~3.1 years

This is a hypothetical, illustrative comparison based on a $15,000/month cash sweep — it is not a projection or promise for any individual’s situation. Actual results depend on income, spending, the rate on the line, and discipline in following the sweep process. Line-of-credit rates are typically variable and can change. Run your own numbers before drawing any conclusions.

The Real Story

The building that started it.

$1MBuilding Value
$300KMortgage
$150KCash Swept In
$750KLine Opened

After a trip to Australia, Pat opened a $750,000 line of credit on his $1M commercial building at 511 Delaware St (75% LTV), paid off the $300,000 mortgage, swept in $150,000 from checking, and applied $15,000/month in rental income. The $300,000 was paid down in 10 months at roughly $5,000 in interest — with the line still open and available.

An Honest Assessment

Is this a fit?

Works for you if

  • You have equity — home, rentals, commercial, or life insurance
  • You have steady income or rent to sweep
  • You spend less than you earn
  • You want your money accessible, not locked away

Will challenge you if

  • You spend whatever’s in the account
  • Expenses exceed income most months
  • You want a fixed set-it-and-forget-it payment
  • You’re not comfortable with a variable rate

Questions

Frequently asked

What does it cost?
We charge a 1–2 point borrower-paid origination fee. Any other costs are reviewed with you in writing before you commit to anything.
How much can I borrow?
Lines range from $300,000 to $30 million, based on your equity and approval.
My mortgage rate is lower — why switch?
Because every dollar of income sits against the line balance until you spend it, the balance drops faster — which can outweigh a rate difference. Whether it does depends on your income, spending, and rate, so we run your numbers with you.
