Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC)
A HELOC (Home Equity Line of Credit) acts somewhat like a credit card, using your home equity as a line of credit. You can borrow and repay funds during the draw period, typically 5-10 years, and then repay the balance over the next 10-20 years. This flexibility makes it popular for ongoing expenses or consolidating high-interest debt.
However, HELOCs often have variable interest rates, making budgeting unpredictable. And while the initial interest-only payments can give you some breathing room, you may find yourself in for a financial rude awakening at the end of the draw period when your payments increase. It's crucial to have a disciplined repayment plan and use the funds responsibly to avoid increasing your debt.
