Home Equity Basics

When you buy a home, you generally take out a mortgage. As the years pass and you pay down your mortgage, you own more and more of your home. The more home you own, the more equity you have.

Using Your Home Equity: What to Consider

Your home equity is essentially how much of your property’s value you’ve paid off. It can be calculated by looking at the house’s current market value and subtracting the remaining balances of your home loan(s).

Understanding Loans and Lines of Credit

Let’s look at various types of loans and lines of credits, as well as who offers them. Loans are received in a single, lump sum up front. On the other hand, lines of credit (LOCs) have variable principals.

Home Equity Lines of Credit

When you want to borrow against your equity—your home’s value minus the amount you still owe on your mortgage—you have two options: a home equity line of credit or a home equity loan.
