Three Main Reasons Home Equity Loan can work for you
1. Invest home equity funds in your kids
- Using home equity loans for education is another popular choice, with the skyrocketing costs of post-secondary education and higher incomes that don’t qualify for special grants and government-backed loans.
- Home equity loans used to pay for education are investments of sorts too. An educated son or daughter is more likely to be financially independent sooner and building his or her own wealth rather than draining yours.
- Unfortunately, college for your kids comes just about that time when you are nearing retirement and may consider home equity loans to offset your reduced income. Don’t over look special educational loans, tax writeoffs and scholarships to meet your children’s educational needs.
2. Putting your home equity money back
- Almost as common as debt consolidations are home equity loans used for home improvements. With carefully planned and professionally completed work, homeowners effectively put home equity loans back into the home by adding more square footage, by bringing the home up to current building codes and by upgrading to contemporary home design and features.
- Problems here stem not so much from using home equity loans for home improvements, but the decisions you make about the improvements.
- The best improvements from home equity loans increase the fair market value of your house. Remodeled rooms, notably kitchens and bathrooms, add the most value. Additions are fine too as long as you don’t over improve. Additions should blend in both with your home’s existing style and the design of the homes in your neighborhood. Interior painting, carpeting and the like probably won’t add much value, but those cosmetic touches will improve the salability of your home
3. Debt consolidation
- Eliminating higher-rate debt, such as that on multiple credit cards. Home equity loans can pay them all off leaving you with one monthly bill that’s likely smaller than the others combined.
- It’s also a good chance the interest rate will be half what you were paying on just one credit card. The rate on home equity loans is cheaper because, unlike credit cards, the debt is secured by your home.
- Additional debt-cost savings are available because with the consolidation you’ll likely pay off your debt sooner. Along the way you’ll get to deduct the interest, up to the legal limits allowed for home equity loans.
