Large home project? Want to consolidate debt? A HELOC could be the answer!
The key to financing your kitchen remodel or consolidating debt to a lower monthly payment might be found in your home's equity. HELOCs allow you to borrow up to almost your maximum home's equity and use it as a line of credit. You are not limited to using the funds for only home renovations. Anytime you need a significant amount of money you can access as a line of credit, consider a HELOC from Academy Bank. Its interest rate is lower than most credit cards.
- Take advantage of your home's increased value
- Access money whenever you need it and pay interest only until repayment period begins
- Greenlight your home improvement projects, pay for higher education, create a financial safety net and more
Home Equity Lines of Credit are often the better option when needing an influx of liquid cash. The repayment terms are usually more flexible than normal personal loans and you can use them like a credit card. As you pay down the principle balance your available withdrawal balance grows. The interest rates, though variable, are lower than credit cards and therefore a better credit option. The interest you pay might even be tax deductible, though you will need to check in your area with a tax consultant to be sure.
