Learn About Home Equity Loans |
A Home Equity Loan is simply being able to take out a loan on your
homes current value
Equity simple means what your home is worth minus what you owe
For example is your home is worth $500,000.00 and you owe $200,000.00
then your Home Equity is $300,000.00 ($500,000.000- $200,000.000)
STOP!!!! Do not think that a Home Equity Loan is the greatest thing
in the world and now your have tons of free money to spend for necessities
like designers clothes and expensive vacations.
Talking to many bank and lending professionals I have learned that
many people that are consolidating debt ask for a “little
extra” to go on a nice well deserve red vacation.
A Home Equity Loan is a Second Mortgage
Yes that is right. Now you will have TWO mortgages instead of
one. Doesn’t sound very good anymore does it?
Well
A Home Equity Loan to Consolidate Debt is much better than overpaying
high credit debt. Think of it as the lesser of two evils.
“Sometimes you have to cut off
a finger to save a hand”
Old Chinese Proverb
Happens to the best of us in fact 43% of American
Families spend more than they make each year.
There is no way that we can offer advice to you
without knowing your situation. So see a reputable Financial Planner
to determine if a Home Equity Loan is right for you.
Special Tip
Do not go to your bank and see the Loan Officer is taking out a
second mortgage is a good idea. The Loan Officer wants to loan you
money so that you can make interest. Instead see someone who does
not have an interest in loaning you money.
