Overview

What it is

Home equity financing lets you borrow against the difference between your home’s value and what you owe. A HELOC (home equity line of credit) works like a revolving line you draw from as needed, while a home equity loan provides a lump sum.

Typical requirements

  • Sufficient equity in your home
  • A solid credit profile
  • Verifiable income and manageable debt
  • A clear purpose for the funds

Potential benefits

  • Access cash without refinancing your first mortgage
  • Flexible draw options with a HELOC
  • Potentially lower rates than unsecured debt
  • Use funds for renovations, consolidation, and more
