Take a walk down a busy street, you have probably bumped into a handful of people that are about to lose their homes. Each of us has been hit hard with all of the cuts being made during this economic crisis. Perhaps you are one of those handfuls on that busy street, about to lose your home. Maybe you now owe more than the house is worth, or maybe you just cannot make that monthly <span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">mortgage payment</span> with that unemployment check. President Obama has two new ideas to help you save your home with his home refinance stimulus package.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><o:p> </o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">The first option is the <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">"Home Affordable Refinance" </span></a>plan. This part of Obama's home stimulus package requires that you are current on your mortgage. Basically, this plan will lower your interest rates which in turn will lower your monthly payment. The principle owed will not change, just the interest rate. The equity you already have in your home will also continue to increase under this home stimulus plan. If you are current on your payments and the home is your primary residence, <span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0); font-style: italic;">you have until June 10, 2010</span> to apply for this "Home Affordable Refinance" plan.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"><o:p> </o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">The second option under Obama's home stimulus package</span> is the "Home Affordable Modification" plan. In order to qualify for this home loan modification, your primary residence housing expenses must be more than 31% of your total gross income. If you lost your job or had a major medical expense and can no longer afford your mortgage payments you should talk to your bank regarding this <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">home loan modification</span></a> process. The Treasury Department is willing to help with this home stimulus plan as well. Each month that you make your mortgage payment on time, they may make a payment that will apply directly to your principle. If you qualify for this part of Obama's stimulus plan, over a 5 year span the Treasury may pay as much as $5,000.00. You have until December 31, 2010 to talk to your bank about this loan modification help. The federal government is trying to save our homes!</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p> <p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);" class="MsoNormal">by Scott A.

And even those who are financially strong enough to buy a property on their own rather find it beneficial to borrow money from the banks in the form of investment loan as they manage to save tax in doing so. The money that these home owners borrow from the financial institutions is what is called a mortgage and it is secured on the real estate by the "lien". Everyone dream of having their own house. And especially people from the middle class consider it to be a big achievement as it is a very considerable investment that one has to make. This is where the banks play a very key role in fulfilling their dreams.

When taking loan the consumer has to mortgage a security document which will allow him to keep the property title while he can use the property as a security against the loan. The money lending institution in turn puts a lien to the property in the event of the consumer does not repay the loan amount. </p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><o:p> </o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">Once the loan</span> is repaid the lien on the property is taken back or removed. The home loan borrowers need to remember that mortgage points are of two different kinds. The origination point and the discount point. The charge of these mortgage points may differ with every lender. The discount point is used to get the loan at a desired interest rate wherein a certain amount is paid to the lender. </p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><o:p> </o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">The origination point on the other hand is paid to the lender to get loan in the first place. </span>The origination point is less popular in comparison to the discount point as it offers the consumers with no benefit and is also not tax deductible.

This is because of the depressed sentiment that even one <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">foreclosed home</span></a> can create in its neighbourhood. This has caused the peculiar situation that many homeowners are saddled with their home that is worth less than their liabilities on account of its purchase. President Obama, having realised the predicament of the homeowners has now introduced the <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">home loan </span></a>modification plan to solve these problems.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"><o:p> </o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">The plan had a quick start in March, </span>2009 after being announced just a month before, that is, February, 2009. A part of the plan provides for refinance to the homeowners who are at risk of foreclosure. Traditionally, one is asked to at least invest 20% equity in order to be eligible for refinancing. But the fall in prices have robbed the homeowners of their wealth who no longer can afford such investments. Considering this fact, Obama's plan provides for easier terms for refinancing to enable the homeowners to better manage their payment of monthly instalments and thus avoid foreclosures.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><o:p> </o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">About 5 million homeowners are likely to be benefitted by the plan, which offers ways and means of modifying the mortgage loans. The Government will compensate the mortgage lenders who will work with the distressed homeowners by restructuring their monthly payments at lower levels.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><o:p> </o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">The lenders would be made to reduce <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">the interest rates</span></a> so that the monthly payments of the homeowners using the loan modification plan will not be more than 38% of their gross monthly income. There are still more possibilities to further reduce the interest rates to make the monthly payments to 31% of the monthly income. For this the lenders can get matching dollar amounts from the Homeowner Stability Initiative of the Government. Considering that the present layoffs have considerably reduced the monthly incomes of the people, often a homeowner may have to part with 40 to 50% of their incomes towards mortgage payments, loan modification plan has become has become an absolute necessity to provide relief to them.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><o:p> </o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">The lending institutions are required to complete a series of steps,</span> as laid out by the U.S. Treasury while providing relief to the homeowners through loan modification. These guidelines would help to make the process more efficient compared to the past initiatives of same nature. What happened in the past was to provide loan modification by linking missed payments with the principal amount. However such an attempt failed to reduce the monthly payments. Now Obama's plan strikes the right chord with the people as they would be required to pay lesser bills and thus have the real solace.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p> <p style="font-weight: bold;

If the house is completely owned by you, then the term used for home equity loan is "mortgage", otherwise if your house is not fully paid off but has equity, it is called a "second mortgage". From now on we will use one term for both to facilitate better understanding. We will call them Home Equity Loans.

This enables a home owner to encash equity without refinancing the first mortgage. Most people are under the impression that the only way to raise cash is by selling their homes. However reality differs and factually one can take a second mortgage to free up the first mortgage also.
<br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">Equity is the difference between the amount you owe on your current home mortgage and the current value of your home. Furthering this definition, suppose you sell your home, the amount of cash left in your pocket after paying off the mortgage is called Equity. This equity when taken as a loan from a lender, without actually selling your home comes to be known as <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">home equity loan</span></a>. Many lenders or loan companies allow you to borrow bigger amounts calculated by subtracting the balances of outstanding mortgages from 125% of the market value of your home. However the actual equity is the difference between appraised worth of your home and the balances of your outstanding mortgages. There is no bar on how you can use the home equity loan. You can use it for any purposes as it suits you.

<br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">A home equity loan</span> is usually a one-time fixed interest rate loan, which is paid out at one go. The rates of interest or the cost of the loan will depend on options you choose viz. the term of the loan and the amount; of course another important factor has always been your credit rating. The longer the term of the loan, the more you pay out as interest, also if the amount is more, the more interest you pay. As always with any liabilities one undertakes certain words of caution are advised. Check all your options thoroughly before making a decision. Choose the amount carefully and take only what you need and specify the term which you think would be comfortable for you to repay in. No point accumulating liabilities in exchange for spending on pleasures or acquiring unnecessary assets. <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">Home equity loans</span></a> are easily accessible to people with poor or bad credit rating since the lender is taking a lesser risk as the loan is secured against their home.

<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">Borrowing against the value of a home has become increasingly popular. There are two key reasons for this surge. People are taking advantage of low interest rates and tax deductibility.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">The tax changes that occurred in 1986 have eliminated deductions for most consumer purchases. As a way to get around these changes in tax, consumers began borrowing up on their home value in order to make purchases. <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">Home equity loans</span></a> thus became a method adopted by homeowners to buy goods and still get a deduction.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 102, 0); font-weight: bold;" class="MsoNormal">Here is an example of how home equity loans are being used today.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">Let's say that you bought your home for $95,000 and made a 20 percent down payment of $19,000. To pay the remaining $76,000, you then took a first mortgage. On the day you closed on your home, you automatically had 20 percent equity. As you pay off the principal, you gain equity and your home grows in value.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">Now, let's say that you have paid $12,000 toward the principal and your property. Remember that you property was valued at $95,000 when you bought it. Now, since you have made the payment on your principal, your $95,000-home is now worth $115,000. Your beginning equity ($19,000), plus the principal you have paid ($12,000) and the increase in your property value ($20,000) gives you $51,000 in equity.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">Banks and borrowers both benefit from <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">home equity loans</span></a>. For that reason, interest rates for home equity loans are lower than for other loans.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">Like most things, home equity loans also have their downsides. The disadvantage to home equity loans is that if you default on the loan, the lender could foreclose on your home. For this reason, home equity loans are statistically most suited to stable, middle-aged borrowers.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">

<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">A home equity loan permits one to borrow a certain amount of money, using the equity of your home as collateral.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">Homeowners, mostly the elderly, and people with low incomes or with poor credit must be very careful and wary when borrowing or having a loan based on their home equity.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">

<br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">1. Equity stripping. Careful! This <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">home equity loan lender</span></a> has the possibility of stealing the equity that you have built up.
<br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">2. Balloon payment (hidden terms) with home equity loans. Examine meticulously the terms of the loan. Your monthly payments can be lowered, as the lender is offering, that you pay back only the interest. You will be facing foreclosure if you can not pay the principal with this type of home equity loan.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">3. Loan Flipping. This is when the lender inspires you to repetitively refinance your loan and to borrow more and more money. A certain lender offers you refinancing, and uses the availability of extra money, declares that it's due time that the equity you built starts "working" well for you. After a few payments, the lender then offers you a larger loan for a family vacation. You accepted the offer and the lender then refinances your original loan and gives you the additional cash.
<br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">4. Credit insurance packing. In this case, the lender will add credit insurance to your <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">home equity loan</span></a> that you do not necessarily need.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">

A mortgage marketing tool, sometimes known as a calculator can calculate the price of a home you can afford. It can also calculate the monthly payments you will make depending on the amount of the loan and the size of your down payment.</p><p style="text-align: justify; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);" class="MsoNormal">

In some cases, the bank will add the closing cost to the loan, which will add to the monthly payment. Generally, up to 8% of the sales price is the amount of the closing cost.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">

Luckily, for many people, those days are long gone.
<br />
<br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">Homeownership</span> is possible for people with bad credit and no credit history at all thanks in large part to a multitude of loan packages made available by countless lenders. Good people with bad credit can now get approved for mortgages and despite what you may have heard from a well intended but misinformed friend or family members, these loans can be at very competitive rates.
<br />
<br />In today's economy if mortgages were made available only to people with pristine credit, the real estate market would collapse. There are simply not enough people in America today with pristine credit. Lenders were forced to create packages available for people with bankruptcies, bad credit histories or no credit histories at all. To remain competitive lenders had to create these packages and you can be the beneficiary of them.
<br />
<br />Though it is true that some packages remain available only to those with excellent or very good credit, there are just as many, if not more packages that are made available to people with mediocre or poor credit, including past bankruptcy. These packages are available at all different interest rates and nuances that allow greater flexibility in coming up with a package that makes sense for you.
<br />
<br />Lenders are now looking at an overall loan application including income, credit history, appraised value of the home and selling price. They will examine how recent or far back your credit problems occurred. They will consider the instant equity in the home (appraised value versus selling price), as well as your income and ability to pay your monthly payments. When looking at income they can, if you want them to, consider all forms of income.
<br />
<br />The more recent the bad credit in your credit reports are the tougher it may be to get approved for some packages, but it is still not impossible. You will want to have a good sense of what is in your credit report so you are prepared to correct any problems in the report. There are countless credit repair programs available that will help you improve your credit score.
<br />
<br />Past bankruptcies are not necessarily a death sentence for <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">homeownership</span></a> and depending on how long ago they occurred they may not hinder the mortgage process at all for you. It is always important to keep copies of your discharge papers and a complete record of your bankruptcy. Your lender may require copies of some of the documentation. They will want to see exactly what was discharged. If there was a mortgage that was discharged in bankruptcy it will impact which mortgage packages are made available to you, but even then there may be mortgage packages that you can still be approved for.
<br />
<br />It seems all too often that people with bad credit feel that they are unable to get beyond their past. Owning a home and showing on-time <a href="http://homemortgage-rate.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">mortgage payments</span></a> is a good way to improve your overall credit portfolio. If you are approved for a mortgage and show payments being made on time this will go along way towards improving your credit scores and improving your overall financial picture.
<br />
<br />When applying for home loans, do not try to hide your credit history, invariably they will uncover any and all skeletons you hoped were in your credit closet. You are much better off being open and honest with your mortgage lender. A good <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">mortgage lender</span></a> will know exactly what packages they can look into for you if you give them an honest and realistic picture of your credit history and other financial matters. Tell them what is wrong in your credit report and can be fixed, what is accurate and cannot be fixed and what you are unsure about. Some lenders will allow an explanation, including proof, of incorrect items on your credit report and look beyond them while evaluating your loan. Dishonesty, however, can hurt you in the long run so be completely honest with the lending institution.
<br />
<br />You can also consider using a co-signer for the loan who has a stronger credit history in some cases. You may be able to have them cosign the loan for a period of time and then you can refinance the loan in your name only once your credit history has been improved. This has become more common with first time homebuyers. The refinance market is strong and there will always be the opportunity to do just that.
<br />
<br />The simple fact of the matter is that there are countless loan packages available to people with bad credit or no credit history. These loan packages can help you whether you have a large down payment, a small down payment or no down payment at all. Speaking to a mortgage lender or network of lenders that have many packages at their disposal will help you begin to realize your dreams of homeownership and put you on a path towards a much brighter financial picture.<o:p></o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">by Ethan Hunter</span><o:p></o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p> parlakawonghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17135702085747925975noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2365112660167267219.post-63961599622337081792009-06-26T23:40:00.000-07:002009-06-26T23:42:10.115-07:00Reaping financial rewards - bad credit home equity loans<meta equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><meta name="ProgId" content="Word.Document"><meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 10"><meta name="Originator" content="Microsoft Word 10"><link rel="File-List" href="file:///C:%5CDOCUME%7E1%5CWARAKIT%5CLOCALS%7E1%5CTemp%5Cmsohtml1%5C01%5Cclip_filelist.xml"><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:worddocument> <w:view>Normal</w:View> <w:zoom>0</w:Zoom> <w:compatibility> <w:breakwrappedtables/> <w:snaptogridincell/> <w:applybreakingrules/> <w:wraptextwithpunct/> <w:useasianbreakrules/> </w:Compatibility> <w:browserlevel>MicrosoftInternetExplorer4</w:BrowserLevel> </w:WordDocument> </xml><![endif]--><style> <!-- /* Font Definitions */ @font-face {font-family:"Angsana New"; panose-1:2 2 6 3 5 4 5 2 3 4; mso-font-charset:0; mso-generic-font-family:roman; mso-font-pitch:variable; mso-font-signature:16777219 0 0 0 65537 0;} /* Style Definitions */ p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {mso-style-parent:""; margin:0cm; margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size:14.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-family:"Angsana New";} @page Section1 {size:612.0pt 792.0pt; margin:72.0pt 90.0pt 72.0pt 90.0pt; mso-header-margin:36.0pt; mso-footer-margin:36.0pt; mso-paper-source:0;} div.Section1 {page:Section1;} --> </style><!--[if gte mso 10]> <style> /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:ตารางปกติ; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0cm; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman";} </style> <![endif]--> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">Home is the place you inhabit. </span>It is the place where you live, breathe, grow, thrive.

A home equity loan or line of credit is a loan that facilitates the borrowing of money using home equity as collateral. A home equity loan is in essence a secured loan.

<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">Interest rates on short-term equity line of credit have increased even though the housing market is slowing, which means that homeowners will have less of a cushion to fall back on should they be unable to repay borrowed money. Still, home-equity loans and lines of credit are often the best attractive option for homeowners who are looking to borrow, and traditional cash-out refinancing of first mortgages has fallen out of fashion since rates began to rise. The loan's terms are usually incredibly unfavorable to the consumer, with enormous up-front costs and high interest rates that sometimes can exceed 40% or more. <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">Home equity loans</span></a> and lines typically have much lower interest rates than traditional types of financing, such as credit cards and personal loans. These loans are granted on fixed interest rates against the borrowers' house as security. Home loans offer a fixed interest rate with fixed monthly payments, while home equity lines of credit feature a variable rate so monthly payments can increase or decrease as rates and your principal balance change. Interest rates are usually fixed rather than variable.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">

These are open ended or revolving loans that allow you to advance yourself money up to a pre-approved credit limit. In this fashion they work much like a credit card.
<br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /><o:p></o:p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">The difference is the interest rate is normally set at a low rate and the payment options are flexible during the initial draw period. For instance if the draw period is ten years that's how long the line of credit is open for. As long as you are under the limit you can draw against it. In most instances at the end of the draw period the balance needs to be paid in full.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /><o:p></o:p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">As you take out advances during the draw period you will start to make monthly payments, most of which will go towards paying back the interest. There are some lines of credit that will allow you to make interest only payments. You do have to be careful when paying only interest because many home equity lines of credit will have <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">balloon payments</span></a> as the draw period nears an end. The more you owe on that credit line the bigger these payments will be.
<br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /><o:p></o:p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">In a worst case the entire amount owed will need to be paid back in one lump sum. This is why it is important to understand all the terms before you sign the closing papers. In many cases there will be an option to pay back the loan over a fixed period of time after the draw period has ended, but you need to make sure this is the case before the bank is asking for payment in full.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">

There is usually a limit as to how high this interest rate can go. When the interest adjusts depends on the terms offered and is something you need to be aware of.

<br /><o:p></o:p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">For starters, equity is the difference between the money owed on your property and how much your property is worth. For instance, if $130,000 is the price you can sell your home for and you owe $40,000 against its mortgage, $90,000 is the total amount of equity the property has accrued.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">

This loan is a one time lump sum paid off over a couple of months, similar to a mortgage.</p><p style="text-align: justify; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);" class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com">

With this type of credit, you borrow a dollar amount, use it, and pay back your creditor just like that AMEX card in your wallet. For instance, let's say your line of credit is $5000. $1000 goes towards a down payment on a car, and then monthly payments are made on that $1000. Although monthly payments are going directly towards that $1000, another $500 can be borrowed against your $5000 line of credit which would allow you to keep making payments on the final amount that you borrowed from the $5000.</p><p style="text-align: justify; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);" class="MsoNormal">

To define a few terms, equity is the difference between your home's appraised - or fair market - value and your outstanding mortgage balance. A loan refers to the amount of money you borrowed from a lender providing you with the <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">mortgage</span></a>. So basically, the idea with home equity loans is to borrow against your home's equity as a very effective way to get some things you need at a good price.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /><o:p></o:p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);" class="MsoNormal">Why Home Equity Loans are popular</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /><o:p></o:p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">To be sure, borrowing against the value of a home has become increasingly popular. Why, you ask. There are two key reasons for this surge: low interest rates and tax deductibility.<o:p></o:p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br />The tax changes that occurred in 1986 have eliminated deductions for most consumer purchases. As a way to get around these changes in tax, consumers began borrowing up on their home value in order to make purchases. <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">Home equity loans</span></a> thus became a method adopted by homeowners to buy goods and still get a deduction.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /><o:p></o:p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">For instance, let's say that you bought your home for $95,000 and made a 20 percent down payment of $19,000. To pay the remaining $76,000, you then took a first mortgage. On the day you closed on your home, you automatically had 20 percent equity. As you pay off the principal, you gain equity and your home grows in value.<o:p></o:p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">Now, let's say that you have paid $12,000 toward the principal and your property. Remember that you property was valued at $95,000 when you bought it. Now, since you have made the payment on your principal, your $95,000-home is now worth $115,000. Your beginning equity ($19,000), plus the principal you have paid ($12,000) and the increase in your property value ($20,000) gives you $51,000 in equity.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">

For that reason, interest rates for home equity loans are lower than for other loans.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">

<br /><o:p></o:p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">Earlier in the article, we have made mention that home equity loans are beneficial to both the lender and the borrower. However, like all things, <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">home equity loans</span></a> also have their downsides. The disadvantage to home equity loans is that if you default on the loan, the lender could foreclose on your home. For this reason, home equity loans are statistically most suited to stable, middle-aged borrowers.

With most home equity lenders offering home loans with variable percentage rates, low or no closing costs, and a variable repayment length, it's no wonder that many homeowners in need of money seek out <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">home equity loans</span></a> as a source of cash. However, the main thing to keep in mind is that your home is the collateral for this loan, so repaying the debt is of the utmost importance.</p><p style="text-align: justify; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);" class="MsoNormal">

<br /><o:p></o:p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">The first home equity loan repayment tips </span></a>is to borrow wisely. Just because you qualify to borrow up to 85% or more of the value of your home does not mean that you should. Really, you should only borrow what you need and can afford to pay back without being in a bind to do so. Setting limits, budgeting, and being conservatively safe with money is always good advice, and when your borrowing period ends, it's wise not to try to extend it under any circumstances.
<br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /><o:p></o:p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">Secondly, examine the interest rate that you'll be getting. Ask your mortgage lender to provide a comprehensive explanation of the terms of interest. Find out what the interest cap will be, if and when the rate will become variable, and if the initial rate is merely an introductory offer. Many borrowers get lulled into a false sense of security because they have been offered a great 'introductory' rate, without fully understanding the amount of interest they'll actually be paying once the 'real' interest kicks in on the <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">home equity loan</span></a>. These small details will always make a big difference.
<br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /><o:p></o:p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">Third, make sure that you know the repayment terms of your home equity loan. If you have a variable term home loan, chances are that your payments can and will change over time. You should receive an amortization schedule with your loan documents that will explain the terms.
<br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /><o:p></o:p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">Other home equity loan repayment tips include,</span> being sure to find out if you have to make a balloon payment on your home equity loan or line of credit as you near the end of your payment schedule. A balloon payment is a large lump sum due on the final payment, and some homeowners are caught off-guard and scramble to gather the large lump sum, as they have been accustomed to making much smaller payments until then.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /><o:p></o:p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">Another word of advice is to familiarize yourself with the 3 Day Cancellation Rule. By law, you always have a three day period after you sign the loan in which you can cancel, and if you're unsure about any portion of the deal, be sure to let your lender know in writing for a full refund of any closing costs involved.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
<br /><o:p></o:p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">Although we've tried to provide helpful tips to aid you in your <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">home equity loan process</span></a>, this information is merely designed to give you an idea of things to look for and should not be considered legal or financial advice. Make sure that you check with any potential mortgage lenders for their specific home equity loan details before you borrow.

<br /><o:p></o:p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">In simple terms, home refinance or <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">home loan refinance</span></a> means a special type of loan that adds on to the principal balance owed, usually for property or home improvements, and alters the existing payment amount and terms. If you're paying a high interest rate for your current mortgage, or if you're stuck in an adjustable rate mortgage, or if you require cash liquidity, or if you plan to consolidate your debt, it's advisable to avail mortgage refinancing facilities. Mortgage refinancing helps you to redeem the remainder of your existing home loan or mortgage loan by taking on a new loan with better terms and conditions. There are many mortgage refinancing options available to you.

At times it makes sense to refinance. However, the exact time to refinance depends greatly upon your individual situation and what your financial goals are. It's important to ask yourself some questions before refinancing:

<br /><o:p></o:p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">It's advisable to get the lowest possible fixed rate for refinancing your home or mortgage, but you also have to consider your existing financial situation. If currently you're in the first year of an adjustable rate mortgage (ARM), and you plan to move on after three years or so, it's not advisable for you to refinance.
<br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">

<br /><o:p></o:p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">It's not possible to predict what the future interest rates will be. But statistically, when mortgage rates rise faster, eventually they do lower down and become steady. Therefore, if you're thinking about availing a <a href="http://homeequity-loanrates.blogspot.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">home loan</span></a> or a mortgage loan, you could lock in your rate now. You can always "refinance" later on if the mortgage rates drop in the future. The possible drop in the future interest rates may not be drastic enough to affect your monthly mortgage payment. However, every situation is different, so it's important to consider and analyze all your options before deciding in a conclusive manner.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal">
