What happens if you use a line of credit to chunk debt down faster?

Velocity banking is usually explained with big promises and clean diagrams. This simulator keeps it plainer: compare normal payoff against a study model where a line of credit pays chunks of principal and monthly free cash flow sweeps that line back down.

Use this for education and assumptions-checking. It does not recommend a HELOC, debt restructure, refinance, or lending strategy.

Debt and line assumptions

Model rule: chunks reduce the primary debt, line interest accrues monthly, and free cash flow sweeps against the line. If the primary debt is paid off, any unused regular payment also sweeps the line.
