Home Equity Loan Facts
By Michael Colucci
A equity loan is a special type of loan that is used by homeowners who wish to use their equity as collateral. It may be necessary for a family to obtain a equity loan for things such as medical bills, college costs, or house repairs. In a nutshell, a equity loan is basically a lien that is placed on the property. Obtaining a equity loan requires the customer to have good credit, and they should be a low risk borrower. equity loans are divided into two types, and these are open end and close end. A equity loan may also be referred to as being a second mortgage.

When compared to traditional mortgages, equity loans tend to be shorter in length. In places like the US, homeowners may be able to deduct the interest the earn on their income taxes. With the closed end equity loan, the homeowner will be given a set amount of money at the closing, and they will not be able to borrow any more money. The amount of money that they are given will be determined by their credit score, salary, and the value of the home. It is not uncommon for a homeowner to borrow 100 percent of the value of the house, and some lenders will go beyond

100 percent in a process that is called over equity.

Closed end equity loans will often have rates that are fixed. In addition to this, the loan may be amortized for as long as 15 years. Once the term of the loan ends, the homeowner may need to pay what is called a balloon payment. To avoid the balloon payment, the homeowner will need to either pay more than the minimum payment each month or refinance the equity loan. The open end equity loan may also be called a equity line of credit. With this loan, the homeowner can decide when they want to borrow money against the equity of the home.

At first, the lender will set a limit on the credit line, and this limit will be dependent on many of the things that are used with closed end equity loans. As with the closed end loan, it is possible for the homeowner to borrow 100% of the value of their with open ended equity loan. The length of these loans may be as long as 30 years. The interest rate for the equity line of credit will be variable. The minimum payment that is made each month will be directly connected to the interest. The interest rate of both of these loans will typically be dependent on the prime rate.

Home equity loans have a number of powerful advantages, and they are utilized by millions of consumers. Many people encounter situations where they need large sums of money, and they money that they have may be tied up in investments. equity loans are a great way for them to pay for these large expenses.
