A HELOC (Home Equity Line of Credit) is an adjustable-rate mortgage, tied to the prime rate, a borrower takes out on their home and uses as a line of credit. It works like a credit card, with the ability to borrow money (against the equity in their home) at different points in time and only pay interest on what they use.
A Home Equity Loan (HELOAN) is a fully amortized fixed rate mortgage providing the borrower a lump-sum as opposed to a line of credit. If the borrower were to take $150,000 out of the equity of their home, they would receive one payment of $150,000 and begin to pay interest on the full amount immediately. Similar to a fixed rate agency loan, but in a second lien position.
HELOCs and Home Equity Loans offer borrowers considerably lower interest rates than those of credit cards, and give the ability to tap home equity, without impacting a low rate first mortgage. That’s why many people opt to use these mortgages to consolidate their debt or make big purchases with lower interest rates!
