HELOC
What can I do with my Home Equity Line of Credit?
With a home equity line of credit, the ways you can use it are endless. The additional funds can go a long way and help you accomplish a lot. Here are the top things people utilize a HELOC for:
Home Repairs
Most people utilize a home equity line for home improvements because typically, HELOC’s are only tax deductible if the funds are used for your residence. The funds can be used for home upgrades, repairs, and developments.
Consolidate Debt
A HELOC serves as a great debt consolidation loan. You can pay off your high interest debt (like personal loans and credit cards) and utilize a low interest home equity line instead.
Create a Cash Reserve
Establishing a cash reserve using your home’s equity can be a great, low interest option as well. You’ll have the line to draw upon if and when you’d need it for emergencies or other sudden occurrences.
Big Events or Vacations
Some people use a HELOC to plan the perfect wedding, event or vacation. The funds can help you create memories that will last a lifetime!
