  “Moving to a Higher Interest Rate?”

 

 

 

 

Joe,

I thought you were crazy when you suggested I give up my 3.75% rate and move one percent higher and payoff all my debts. I might of understood the credit card debts, but the cars? The numbers don’t lie, even with the increase of the rate, we are saving almost $2000 a month. Your coaching was amazing, all the interest we are paying now is all deductible for tax purposes. Even more ridiculous the mortgage payment only went up $685.

 

Thank you for your recommendation, we’re meeting with the financial planner when we return from our vacation.

 

I know I’m not the first to say to you, I will let everyone know of the magic you can create for others. Thank you again my friend!

 

Gerry & Jodi.

 

 

It sounds counter intuitive to suggest someone refinance and go to a higher interest rate, but in some cases, it is the right decision.

 

I am a math guy.  If the math makes sense to move to a higher interest rate to accomplish an overall benefit, then I will recommend it each and every time.

It all makes a lot of sense!!!

It sounds counter intuitive to suggest someone refinance and go to a higher interest rate, but in some cases, it is the right decision.

the only issue is that they need to make sure they don't run up their credit card bills again -

Hi Joe- that's why it definitely pays to have someone as knowledgeable as you looking out for them.

I always tell people to pay off what has the highest interest rate. If you use your home please don't run up the cards again.
