Home equity loan
Do you need to tap into your homes equity to pay for a home remodeling project or to pay off a credit card? A home equity loan is a fixed or adjustable rate loan that is secured by the equity in your home. With a home equity loan, you borrow a lump sum of money to be paid back monthly over a set time frame, much like your first mortgage. The terms home equity loan and second mortgage are often used interchangeably.
The process for a home equity loan is similar to your first mortgage. The closing costs are typically paid for by the lender/ broker, and although the interest rate is higher on a home equity loan, the interest paid is tax deductible.
To qualify for second mortgage, your credit must be in good standing . An appraisal will sometimes be required on your home to determine the home's market value.
