A home equity line of credit or HELOC usually
has a floating interest rate tied to the
Prime Rate and allows you to take equity
out of a property when you wish. Of course,
you incur interest costs only on the money
taken out. It can be a good choice if
your needs are expected to be episodic.
A major advantage of the home equity line
of credit is that your interest costs
are tax deductible. A comparison between
the after tax costs of the HELOC and any
consumer loan should be done before any
major purchase. Please give me a call
if you need help with the calculation.

Refinance
Mortgage Loan engrosses paying off
one mortgage loan with the earnings of
another mortgage loan. Refinancing your
mortgage can be made to consolidate your
debts, lower your current interest rate,
abbreviate the term of your current mortgage,
pay off a land contract/contract for deed,
pull cash out for any purpose, or take
a much desired vacation!
Is this the right time for a mortgage
refinancing? That all depends. Mortgage

reason for a mortgage refinance is to
lower monthly payment through lowering
present interest rates. This mortgage
refinance calculator will help you make
a knowledgeable decision.
