Frequently Asked Questions

HELOC stands for “home equity line of credit.” It’s a revolving credit line that lets you tap into your home’s equity to provide funding for what is most important to you. It’s similar to a credit card, where you can borrow as much as you need, whenever you need it, as long as you don’t exceed your credit limit.

HELOCs are flexible, so you can use them for all kinds of things! Secure a down payment on a second home, complete a home renovation, consolidate debt, or pay for important life plans like college tuition, dream vacations, and more. When you use a HELOC, it’s on the house.

HELOC interest can sometimes be tax deductible, but that can depend on factors like how you use the funds and your specific tax situation. We recommend checking with your tax advisor for advice!

Yes, you can refinance a HELOC! Refinancing can be a smart move to help you maintain your financial health while pursuing what matters most to you. Get in touch with us to learn more about your options.

A home equity loan gives you a one – time lump sum, while a HELOC is more like a credit card. During your draw period, you can borrow and repay as much of your available equity as you want, as long as you don’t exceed your credit limit.

The most important HELOC requirement: you need to have available equity in your home. This often means meeting a required loan-to- value percentage as well. And, as with any loan, a good credit score is always important!
