Why does it take so long? A 30-year mortgage is front-loaded with interest. In the early years, most of each payment goes to the bank, not to building equity. The conventional buyer's equity grows slowly through principal paydown alone. The Foundation Home buyer started with $25,670 more equity on day one, without making a single mortgage payment to earn it.
