Understanding the Basics of Home Equity Loans

What is the difference between a home equity loan and a home equity line of credit?

A Home Equity Loan lets you borrow a fixed amount, secured by the equity in your home, and receive your money in one lump sum. Typically, home equity loans have a fixed interest rate, fixed term and fixed monthly payment.

A Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) allows you to borrow money as you need it with your home as collateral. Once approved for a HELOC you can draw funds over the “draw period” as you need, up to your approved credit limit.

Interest on a Home Equity Loan or Line of Credit may be 100% tax deductible. Please consult a tax advisor for details.

Home Equity Line of Credit Disclosure

How do I figure out how much I can borrow?

Your borrowing ability is determined by the equity you have in your home as well as other factors such as credit history.

Borrow up to 90% of your property's appraised value, minus your first mortgage balance. Please note, the appraisal must be less than 6 months old at the time of closing.

Example

Your Appraised Property Value $200,000
90% of Appraised Value $180,000
Less Your First Mortgage Balance $160,000
Your Available Equity $20,000
