While home improvement loans are great for small scale projects and home loans are for your mortgage, sometimes the right choice is a home equity loan. A home equity loan, or HELOC, is ideal for things like:
- Larger, more in-depth home improvements
- Helping to pay for college tuition or a dream vacation
- For cash on-hand in case of emergency
A HELOC loan puts the equity in your home to work for you with convenience checks that allow you to access your home equity line of credit at any time.
What is a HELOC Loan?
So, what is a HELOC and how do home equity lines of credit work? A home equity line of credit, or HELOC loan, is a loan that uses your home as collateral. HELOC loans allow you to borrow up to a certain amount, but it functions more like a credit card. You have a credit limit and can borrow any amount up to that limit. A HELOC loan offers flexibility with your borrowing because you aren’t limited to borrowing a set amount. It can be borrowed all at once, or over the draw period.
