How Home Equity Line of Credit Work?
Equity Assessment
Our experienced team will evaluate the current market value of your home and subtract any outstanding mortgage balance to determine the available equity. The remaining equity serves as the basis for your HELOC limit.
Repayment Options
HELOC generally consist of two stages: the draw period and the repayment period. In the draw period, which typically spans 5 to 10 years, you have the option to borrow funds from the credit line and make interest-only payments or pay both the principal and interest. Once the draw period concludes, the repayment period commences. This phase usually lasts 10 to 20 years and requires you to repay both the principal and interest, with no further access to withdraw funds.
Home Equity as Collateral
As a barrower, you should be aware that one crucial aspect of a HELOC is that your home serves as collateral. If you are unable to repay the loan, the lender has the right to foreclose on your property. It's important to ensure that you can comfortably manage the monthly payments and understand the potential risks associated with using your home as collateral.
