Debt Recycling

Debt recycling is a long term strategy that can help you achieve your retirement income goal.

What is debt recycling?

Debt recycling is a financial strategy that can help you create wealth for your future by replacing your home loan (non deductible) debt with investment (tax deductible) debt over time.

It enables you to:

  • Repay your home loan quicker saving large amounts of interest.
  • Build wealth in an investment portfolio outside of superannuation.
  • Increase your tax deductions each year saving you tax.

Debt recycling is a long term strategy that can help you achieve your retirement income goal.

Debt recycling can provide an alternative to superannuation by allowing you to accumulate wealth in the non-superannuation environment which provides access to funds in the future if required. This may be appropriate if you are looking to retire prior to your preservation age (the age you can get access to your superannuation benefits).

Debt recycling simply uses your existing home loan repayments more efficiently to get a better result through interest savings, tax savings and long term wealth creation.

Who can benefit & what are the benefits?

Anyone who has a home loan and would like to pay it off in the quickest possible time, reduce tax and create wealth all at the same time.

A debt recycling strategy can be customised to your individual situation, and incorporated with other financial planning strategies as appropriate. After all, you have to pay your home loan repayments anyway, why not use that money more effectively to get a better result?
