I’ve been getting a lot of questions lately about home equity loans—and whether I offer them.
The answer is yes. I now have options available for homeowners who want to access their equity without refinancing their existing first mortgage.
These are not Home Equity Lines of Credit or HELOCs.
This is a traditional home equity loan: you receive a specific amount at closing and repay it through scheduled monthly payments. Your existing first mortgage stays in place, which may allow you to keep the low interest rate you already have.
Home equity funds may be used for:
• Paying off high-interest credit cards
• Consolidating monthly payments
• Home improvements or repairs
• Medical or unexpected expenses
• College expenses
• Business needs
Approval and available loan amounts depend on your equity, credit, income, and the program guidelines. I can review your situation and explain whether it makes financial sense—without any pressure.
Call or message me if you’d like to discuss your options.
