Not even a year ago, you could refinance your entire mortgage to get cash out of your home’s equity while taking advantage of record low rates. The market is changing and rates are rising, but you still have options to make your home work for you. Home equity loans, also known as second mortgages, are a potential tool that can help you access some of your home’s equity, keep the rate on your existent mortgage, and still achieve your financial goals.
While the arrival of the winter season means holiday cheer abound, it also means temperatures are dropping. For many homeowners, the beginning of colder weather can mean increases in your monthly energy bill.
A cash-out refinance allows you to access the equity in your home for extra cash if you have considerable equity in the home. For example, if your home is worth $250,000 and you still owe $150,000, you could take out a new loan for $180,000, pay off the existing loan amount and use the remaining $30,000 to consolidate credit card debt.
