首页owners who have equity in their home can use it as revolving credit and borrow against it when they use a 首页 Equity 信贷额度, 也被称为HELOC. It’s easy to get a HELOC and can come in handy when you need quick access to funds at a favorable interest rate.
什么是房屋净值?
首页 equity is the current market value of your home minus the amount you owe on it. 例如, 假设你的房子评估价值是200美元,000，你有80美元,你还欠抵押贷款. 在这种情况下，你有12万美元的房屋净值(20万到8万美元). 不知道你的房子值多少钱? 当你在Arbor Financial申请HELOC时, the application process will include a home valuation which will tell you what the approximate current market value of your home is.
在Arbor Financial, you can have a line of credit using the equity in your home starting at $10,000英镑作为抵押借款, 类似于信用卡, 只是利率比信用卡低得多. 你可以随时从你的HELOC预支, 而且对你如何花钱也没有限制!
以下是房屋净值信贷额度(HELOC)的7种常见用途:
1. 支付房屋改善费用.
HELOC最受欢迎的用途之一是家庭装修, and those that increase the value of your home make using your HELOC well worth it. Just be mindful of what will actually increase your home's value and what projects may not. 新油漆, 地毯, and kitchen improvements are all projects that typically yield increased value, 然而，一个新的池可能不会. Or, maybe you plan on staying in the house for a while and simply wish to make it more comfortable and attractive by purchasing new furniture.
2. 还清信用卡或其他高息债务.
债务合并是房屋净值的另一个常见用途. 如果你有信用卡债务, then you are most likely paying two or three times the interest than you would with a HELOC. 根据… WalletHub研究, as of July 2021, the average interest rates on credit cards range from 14.61% - 18.04%. 将你的信用卡债务转到HELOC可以为你节省数百美元, 如果不是几千美元的话, 兴趣.
在使用HELOC进行债务合并时，您也必须谨慎. Having a solid debt consolidation plan and sticking with it is the key here. Assess why you have so much credit card debt and how you will avoid adding to your debt.
3. 支付教育费用.
Using your HELOC to help pay for education is an alternate to student loans. 在动用你的房屋资产之前, 评估你所有的贷款选择来帮助支付教育费用, 包括条款和利率.
4. 安排假期.
生活在密歇根州, 你知道人们对假期的渴望, 尤其是在漫长的冬季. If you must borrow money to take a vacation, then tapping into your HELOC is an option. Most financial experts agree that using your home equity for vacations is not prudent, and you could find yourself getting into trouble if you don’t have a plan in place. However, with a solid repayment plan in place, it can be a very convenient option.
5. 支付医疗费用.
即使有保险，医疗费用也可能很高. 使用低利率的HELOC可能是一个不错的选择. 在大多数情况下, you will find the interest rate from a HELOC to be the most competitive rate since you are borrowing from your own home's equity. However, it makes sense to review your options when it comes to paying for medical expenses.
6. 用作第二套房的首付款.
Ah, 所以你想要第二个家, 度假屋, 湖边的小屋, 或者去偏远的树林里参加一年一度的狩猎之旅? Tapping into the equity from your first home could be just what you need to help finance that second home. 在你开始利用这些资产之前, you may want to discuss the best strategy for acquiring a second home with an Arbor Financial mortgage specialist. 在Arbor Financial, we have several mortgage options to help you get into your first or second home with low to no down payment options while avoiding private mortgage insurance.
