☆ What Is a Home Equity Line of Credit?

However, there are some key differences between the mechanics of credit cards and Helocs. Still, Helocs have far lower rates than credit cards, even for borrowers with strong credit scores. If interest rates climbed to 7% a year later, your payment would rise to $58 a month until the end of the draw period—unless interest rates move again or you draw more from the line. (Secured credit cards are an option for people with limited credit history; they require a cash down payment.) Consolidating credit card debt is another common use, since rates on credit cards can be as much as double what they are on home-equity loans.

☆ Renting vs. buying: Making the jump to homeownership

While buying a house can set you up for financial success, renting comes with its own benefits, like flexibility. If you can't afford a down payment or monthly payments, you may want to continue renting for now. Homeownership also costs more than just the monthly mortgage payment. This includes your mortgage, property taxes, mortgage insurance, homeowners insurance, and HOA fees, but not costs like utility bills. If monthly mortgage payments would be a financial strain, it could be better to keep renting for now.

Heloc interest rates are usually in line with mortgage rates. If interest rates climbed to 7% a year later, your payment would rise to $58 a month until the end of the draw period—unless interest rates move again. Helocs vs. credit cardsHelocs and credit cards are both ways to set up a so-called “revolving” line of credit which allows you to take whatever you need, whenever you need it—up to a certain limit. Helocs vs. home equity loansHome equity loans and Helocs are strategies for pulling cash out of your home. Consolidating credit card debt is another common use, since rates on credit cards can be as much as double what they are on home equity loans.
