Home Equity Line of Credit

If you are a typical home owner and have owned your home for several years, your property has earned a profit for you by increasing in value due to inflation. Further, your regular monthly mortgage payments have reduced the amount you owe on your home. The difference between the current value of your home and what you owe on it is your approximate “home equity.”

Advantages of Home Equity Lines of credit

  • The loan is a pre-approved line of credit that is always there when you need it. You may use it all at once, or use it as you need it.
  • You only make payments on the amount of the loan you have used.
  • You may borrow up to 95% of your home’s equity.
  • The interest you pay may be tax-deductible (see your tax advisor for details) for those members who itemize on their tax returns.
  • This home equity can be used as collateral to secure a low rate loan which can be used for just about anything you can think of: home improvements or additions, a dream vacation, new appliances, a new vehicle, college education, or to consolidate high interest debt. What you use the loan for is up to you.
