HELOC
HELOC
Equity is the diference between what you owe on an asset and the value of an asset. A $500,000 home with a $300,000 mortgage has $200,000 in equity. If you’ve owned your home for several years, you’ve likely seen the tremendous growth of your home’s overall value and the amount of equity you’ve gained. You have these tools available to exercise the best use of your home’s equity.
HELOC. If you’d like to maintain the terms of your current mortgage but still want to excercise the equity in your home, a HELOC may be a good option. A HELOC is a second lien against your home that allows you to draw needed funds which are guaranteed by the equity in your home. When you use the HELOC, similar to a credit card, you owe a payment based upon the balance. If you don’t use the line you owe nothing. Use your HELOC to consolidate debt or just keep for emergencies.

Rate and Term Refinance. Most homeowners first purchased their home with a minimal downpayment. With accumulated equity, a rate and term refinance may eliminate mortgage insurance and lower the monthly payment with an extended term.
Cash Out Refinance. Add up your monthly ‘term’ liabilities, meaning debts that can actually be paid off. Credit cards, auto loan, student loan etc (not utilities, memberships or subscriptions). Using the equity in your home, use a cash-out refinance to consolidate those debts and your current mortgage into a new all-encompassing mortgage for a lower overall monthly payment.
Reverse Mortgage. Senior age 62+ have the ability to use their home’s equity to subsiduze their finances. Opposite of a conventional ‘forward’ mortgage where you pay down your principal over the years, a reverse has no principal and interest payment requirement. This means your beginning balance will increase over time. There are two significant advantages; 1) your monthly home payment obligations are now just taxes and insurance (and HOAs if applicable) but no principal, no interest; 2) property valuation tends to grow at a faster rate than the principal. Basic qualifications are age 62 and 50% equity in your home or subject property. Seniors can receive a one time lump sum amount aplus a monthly stipend. Seniors can even buy a home with a reverse mortgage with a 50% down payment. The remaining balance requires no monthly principal and interest payments.
No Income Cash-Out Equity. Leverage your home’s equity even if you do not have active income. Use the funds for new investments, debt consolidation or home improvements.
