Home Equity FAQs

What is a home equity loan?

A home equity loan is a fixed-rate second mortgage that gives you a lump sum of cash upfront. You repay it with fixed monthly payments over 5, 10, 15, 20, or 30 years. Interest rates are typically lower than personal loans or credit cards because your home secures the loan.

What is a HELOC?

A HELOC (Home Equity Line of Credit) is a revolving credit line secured by your home. You can borrow as needed up to your credit limit during a draw period (typically 10 years), then repay over 10–20 years. Interest rates are variable (tied to Prime rate). Think of it like a credit card secured by your home.

Home equity loan vs HELOC — which is better?

Home Equity Loan: Best if you know the exact amount you need, want a fixed rate and payment, and will use funds all at once (e.g., kitchen remodel). HELOC: Best if you want flexibility, may not use the full amount immediately, or have ongoing expenses (e.g., home improvements over time, emergency fund).

How much home equity can I access?

Most lenders allow you to borrow up to 85% of your home’s value minus your current mortgage balance. For example: $500k home × 85% = $425k max combined loan-to-value (CLTV) – $300k current mortgage = $125k available equity.

Do I need an appraisal?

It depends on the loan amount and lender. Many lenders offer desktop appraisals or appraisal waivers for smaller amounts. Larger loans ($100k+) typically require a full appraisal.

What can I use the funds for?

Anything! Common uses: home improvements (increase property value), debt consolidation (pay off high-interest credit cards), down payment on investment property, college tuition, medical expenses, emergency fund, major purchases. No restrictions.
