What Is A Home Equity Loan?

A Home Equity Loan allows you to access funds with fewer restrictions than traditional banks, quickly. Essentially, the amount you can borrow is determined by the equity in your home. In most situations, you can borrow up to 80% of your home's value. As you reduce your mortgage balance or your home's value appreciates, your equity—and consequently your borrowing capacity—expands. A Home Equity Loan can offer a one-time cash payout that can be utilized for various needs, including home improvements, consolidating debt, or covering significant expenses.
