Home Equity Loan

If you are a homeowner, then your home is an assetthat has an appraised market value and you canget a loan secured by your home.The maximum amount you may borrow is the appraised value of your home less balanceowed on mortgage (in case you have a mortgage )
Some lenders set the credit by taking a percentagelet us say 80 % of the home's appraised value lessbalance owed on existing mortgage.
A home equity loan may be used for Debt consolidation, home repairs, medical bills, a child's college tuition etc.Unlike auto loans or credit cards, the interest on a Home Equity Loan is usually tax-deductible
Taking a home equity loan may be good for you, but before applying for it you need to think about someconsiderations made by the FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSIONwhich you find in the site:

There are six points(don't)and four points ( do )

 


This is what THE FEDERAL TRADE COMISSION says:
Protecting Yourself
You can protect yourself against losing your home to inappropriate lending practices. Here's how:

Don't:
Agree to a home equity loan if you don't have enough income to make the monthly payments. Sign any document you haven't read or any document that has blank spaces to be filled in after you sign. Let anyone pressure you into signing any document. Agree to a loan that includes credit insurance or extra products you don't want. Let the promise of extra cash or lower monthly payments get in the way of your good judgment about whether the cost you will pay for the loan is really worth it. Deed your property to anyone. First consult an attorney, a knowledgeable family member, or someone else you trust.


Do:
Ask specifically if credit insurance is required as a condition of the loan. If it isn't, and a charge is included in your loan and you don't want the insurance, ask that the charge be removed from the loan documents. If you want the added security of credit insurance, shop around for the best rates. Keep careful records of what you've paid, including billing statements and canceled checks. Challenge any charge you think is inaccurate. Check contractors' references when it is time to have work done in your home. Get more than one estimate. Read all items carefully. If you need an explanation of any terms or conditions, talk to someone you can trust, such as a knowledgeable family member or an attorney. Consider all the costs of financing before you agree to a loan.
