HELOC FAQ
What is a HELOC?
A Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) is a revolving line of credit that allows you to borrow, spend, and repay as you go using your home as collateral.
How does a HELOC work?
A HELOC is a revolving line of credit meaning you can borrow as little or as much as you need up to your approved credit line, like a credit card.
Home Equity Line of Credit or Home Equity Loan?
With a HELOC you can borrow money as you need and typically have a variable interest rate, meaning it changes over time.
With a HOME Equity Loan, you receive your funds in a lump sum upfront and usually have a fixed monthly interest rate.
What can I pay for with a HELOC?
A HELOC can be used to finance almost anything, such as home renovations, repairs, education, or consolidating higher-interest rate debt.
What are the pros of a HELOC?
A HELOC offers the flexibility to borrow funds as needed for various purposes. Additionally, HELOCs tend to have lower interest rates compared to personal loans or credit cards, and you only pay interest on the money you borrow making them an affordable option.
What are the cons of a HELOC?
Because your home is used as collateral, failure to make payment may result in foreclosure on your home. Additionally, HELOCs tend to have variable rates meaning your interest rate could go up.
Is the interest tax deductible?
Interest on a HELOC may be tax deductible. Consult with a tax advisor or financial professional regarding tax deductibility to ensure compliance with IRS regulations.
