Home Equity Line of Credit

Home Equity Lines of Credit are a great way to finance large purchases

If you’re looking at a large purchase in the future, you might consider a HELOC

 

What is a HELOC?

A home equity line of credit, also known as a HELOC, is a line of credit secured by your home that gives you a revolving credit line to use for large expenses or to consolidate higher-interest rate debt on other loans such as credit cards. A HELOC often has a lower interest rate than some other common types of loans, and the interest may be tax deductible.

Home Purchase

There’s a lot to think about when buying a house – and it’s normal to have questions, especially if you are a first time home buyer.

Refinance

Maybe you want to change your term or lower your payment or payoff your loan faster. A rate and term mortgage could be your key to both.

Loan Options

Finding a great home loan involves careful consideration of your needs, finances and history. We are here to guide you.

Frequently Asked Questions

A HELOC allows you to borrow against the available equity in your home and the home is used as collateral for the line of credit.  Much like a credit card, as you repay the outstanding balance, the amount of available credit is replenished.  You can borrow against the line as little or as much as you need throughout the draw period (typically 10 years).  At the end of the draw period, the repayment period (typically 20 years) begins.

To qualify, all loan applicants must meet certain loan requirements, including:

  • Sufficient equity in your home
  • Good work history
  • Verifiable income
  • Credit score of 640+

Depending on your credit score, you can borrow up to 90% of your home's appraised value, minus your current mortgage balance. 

Most HELOCs have variable interest rates tied to a market index (like the U.S. Prime Rate), meaning your monthly payments can fluctuate over time.

Anthony & Debbie are absolutely FANTASTIC! My husband and I are both self-employed, which makes our income situation a little tricky. Where other lenders wouldn’t even give us a chance, Anthony and Debbie fought for us, confidently worked through the challenges, and found real solutions to get our loan approved. I worked as an underwriter for 7 years, so I know firsthand how difficult our file was — and they still got it done. We’re so impressed and so thankful. Thank you, Buckhead Loans!
