A home equity line of credit (HELOC) is a credit line secured by the value of your home, minus any existing mortgage owed. You can borrow against it, spend, repay, and borrow again using your home as collateral.

How does a HELOC work?

You’ll typically have an open credit line for up to 10 years. During this “draw” period you borrow — using checks or a credit card — and usually make monthly interest payments. Then you begin paying back the principal plus interest.

What is the monthly payment on a $50,000 HELOC?

Monthly HELOC payments vary by interest rate and how much of the credit line you’ve used. If you use $50,000 and your rate is 8%, your monthly interest payment will be $333. When you begin repaying the principal, payments rise to $1,013.

What can you use a HELOC for?

You can use a HELOC for anything, at any point during the loan period. Some people use it to finance large home improvements or to consolidate other debts into one payment.

What are the benefits of a HELOC?

One advantage of a HELOC is that you can borrow and repay repeatedly for several years without additional paperwork. Interest rates are typically lower than those for a credit card, and interest may be tax-deductible.
