Zero to Hero: The Mortgage Hero Story

Vins - wins for you

“A few years ago, I was in your position. Today I’m on the other side of the table, and I can teach you strategies for achieving financial freedom. I went from a large mortgage to zero in less than eight years. I know everyone who has dreams of paying it off faster. If I can do it, I can help you make it happen too.”

The hero helps make your mortgage zero

When Vins Grover first arrived in New Zealand, he lived in a converted garage for two and a half years. One thing he was sure of: when he walked out of that place he’d walk into his own home, not another rental. He purchased his first home in 2005 with only 5% deposit.

In 2007, Vins upgraded to a bigger house, and in 2008 he started studying New Zealand property. During the 2008 Global Financial Crisis, he was paying 8.55% interest on his loans. Even so, at the end of 2012, Vins bought his first investment property, quickly followed by a few more, and had paid off his home by the end of 2014.
