A home equity loan is a fixed or adjustable rate
loan obtained for a variety of purposes and is secured by the equity in your
home. Interest paid is usually tax-deductible. Home equity loans are frequently used for home improvements
or the freeing up of equity for other investments such as real estate.
They are recommended by many professionals as a replacement or substitute for consumer loans where the interest
is not tax-deductible (auto loans, boat loans, credit card debt, medical
debt, and education loans). Simply put, it's a loan that allows you to
borrow against the equity in your home.
Home equity loans allow you to borrow money
by pledging your house as collateral. If you want to borrow a relatively
large amount of
money or don’t have very good credit, a home equity loan can be a very practical option.
- They usually have a lower interest rate.
- Payments on a home equity loan are usually tax-deductible.
- They are easier to qualify for if you have bad credit.
- You can borrow large amounts with this type of loan.

cash you need at a great
