It's been a big year for my husband and me. We had our first child and recently closed on our first home, since our town home was feeling a bit snug with our new addition. Given the current state of the housing market, we were very fortunate to be able to make a profit on our town home and receive the financing necessary for our dream home.
Signing the dotted line and receiving the keys was a fantastic feeling; after all we now had 5000 square feet and one acre of gorgeous property that belonged completely to us. However, along with that "high" was the sobering reality that we now had a thirty year mortgage to contend with. During our first year of marriage, we made the goal to live debt-free and within three years, we had all our student loans and credit cards paid off. So to have a debt as massive as a mortgage was slightly disconcerting, despite the fact that the majority of Americans have to get a mortgage. How disheartening to think that by the time the thirty years is up, we will have paid nearly twice as much in interest as the original purchase price of the home.
I had heard from friends and acquaintances about different early mortgage payoff plans that were available. One such program that we came across that seemed to have rave reviews was the Money Merge Account, offered by United First Financial.
In the simplest of terms, the Money Merge Account system empowers homeowners with the ability to reduce the principal amount of their mortgage, thus reducing the interest that accrues on the total loan. The driving force of the program is an advanced line of credit (ALOC, also known as a home equity line of credit or HELOC). In order to qualify for a HELOC, homeowners must have equity in their home. My husband and I purchased our new home during the first phase of a residential building project. Since the value of the homes have increased, our house subsequently appreciated through the duration of the second and third phases. Once a homeowner has been approved for the line of credit, they are ready to use the Money Merge Account system. The HELOC must also be able to operate similar to a checking account.
Anytime you deposit income into your primary checking account, you transfer it to the line of credit and tell the Money Merge Account how much was deposited. Over time, the system will instruct you to put a certain amount of additional money towards the primary balance of your mortgage, permitting the interest rate to drop. Based on the deposits you make, the Money Merge Account uses advance algorithms to compute how much extra you should pay and when. The end result is to create the greatest interest rate savings possible.
United First Financial provides seminars for individuals interested in learning more about the Money Merge Account. My husband and I attended one and would highly recommend it to any of our friends and family; we found the seminar to be informative, educational, and helped us realize that the Money Merge Account is a system apt for us and our situation.
