Home Equity Loans – 3 Tips to Smarter Borrowing
There is no question that home equity loans have become the biggest tool for homeowners to get their hands on the cash they need. And used correctly, these loans are also a smart way to borrow needed funds for things like medical expenses, debt repayment and home improvements. With that said, here are 3 tips to help you in finding a great deal on a home equity loan.
1. Shop For Rates And Avoid Fees
Many home owners don’t realize that lending rates on loans are different. They mistakenly believe that all lenders will loan money at about the same interest rate. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Home equity loan rates could vary by up to 5% in some cases, and on a $100,000 loan that is serious money. Get at least 3 different loan comparisons before making a decision. Yes, that may take extra time, but it could be worth thousands of dollars. Thousands of dollars of your money.
Also, be aware of loan fees. Lenders should not be charging you for an application fee or an appraisal fee. Nor should they add fees into the loan amount. Where a lender may add on a fee is with a home equity line of credit. They may charge an annual fee.
2. Understand Tax Rules
Many borrowers mistakenly believe that interest on any home equity loan will be tax deductible each year. This just is not true.
Interest on loans up to $100,000 may be tax deductible, but any amount over that will not be deductible.
Also, in order to deduct the interest you will have to be able to itemize your tax return. Will you have the deductions to be able to do this?
3. Understand Your Home Is On The Line
Not only are you putting your home on the line in the event you are unable to repay your loan, but you are also sucking out your home’s equity. Be sure that you are not planning on moving in the next few years or you could be in financial trouble.
Be careful in using the money for home improvements. Ask yourself if you will be able to get the value back out of your home when you go to sell it. In some cases the answer may be no.
By following these tips you can make a smarter decision in taking out any type of home equity loan.
Home Equity Loans – Tips to Get Out of Debt
Home equity loans can be an excellent source of funds when used wisely. One of the ways in using the cash from a home equity loan is to consolidate your debts.
Why is it wise to consolidate your debt with the money from your home equity? There are several good reasons which include:
-Paying a much lower interest rate than you pay on your credit cards. In some cases it can be a third of what a credit card company is charging.
-You can most likely deduct the interest expense on your home equity loan whereas you can not on credit cards. This is a huge benefit.
-All your debts are consolidated into one monthly loan payment.
So, what are your options when it comes to using your home equity to pay off your debts? Again, you have choices you can take advantage of including:
Home Equity Loan
Also known as a second mortgage, you can take the equity in your home and borrow against it at a favorable rate of interest. You get the cash in one lump sum and can then pay off your debts or use it how you wish.
Home Equity Line Of Credit
Similar in nature to a credit card, HELOC allows you to draw funds from your home equity and only make payments on that amount, not on an entire loan.
Cash-Out Refinance
This is the third option you have and involves refinancing your existing home mortgage. You would refinance the new mortgage at a greater amount and take the extra money in cash. For example, you want to pay off $25,000 in credit card debt and owe $150,000 on your current mortgage. You could do a cash-out refinance to a new loan amount of $175,000.
Using your home equity to pay off high interest debts can be a wise decision if done right. Just be careful to not start using those credit cards again.
