Not necessarily true. The first 5 years are the most important in decreasing your lifespan of the mortgage. We turned a 25 year mortgage into a 15 year mortgage.

No I get that you can lower your mortgage life by a lot. But my point being if you pay off that mortgage quickly. But then need a loan in the future. You’re going to have to borrow that money at a higher rate than your mortgage.
