Mechanics of A Heloc
Posted on 7/12/22 at 10:06 am
Posted on 7/12/22 at 10:06 am
Can someone walk me thru the mechanics of a heloc:
Appraisal
Loan up to 85% of Appraisal minus Mortgage
10 year draw period only paying interest on money drawn (?)
Repayment period after 1o year draw period (?)
Can you pay early during the draw period?
Does your LOC increase as your mortgage decrease?
TIA

of course, its usually pay what you want but you at least pay the monthly interest generated.

No, you're usually locked in at a hard ceiling when heloc issued of your line of credit value.

For example, home appraises for $100k and you owe $50k, they'll lend you $35k.
quote:You only pay interest on the amount you borrow from the line. The interest is calculated daily on the outstanding balance at that time.
10 year draw period only paying interest on money drawn (?)
quote:If you have an outstanding balance after the 10 years, they'll term it out for a period of 10 years for you to pay back, but you won't be able to borrow from the line any longer.
Repayment period after 1o year draw period (?)
quote:You can pay whenever you want an as early as you want. If you want to maximize this, Youtube "Velocity Banking"
Can you pay early during the draw period?
quote:No, it's a set amount that you're approved for and that's the maximum you can borrow during the 10yr period.

Depending on the value of your home and/or LTV ratio, you can sometimes go back and get your limit raised. I got that option a year or so ago, but ended up not needing to go that route, thank goodness.
ETA: The interest rate is also revolving, although MUCH MUCH lower than Credit Cards. A year ago, mine hovered around 4%, and now it's up to around 5%, so it's not huge swings, but it's definitely not fixed.

The rates are adjustable, so it seems beneficial to pay off asap.
