equity loan?
how do you know if you are quilified for a equity loan.I know we have equity in our home and in the past I have always been told "sorry you are not quilified for anequity loan but we can refinance your home".I know that the lender makes alot more off a refi,but does it have something to do with credit scores?If a person has alot of equity in their home why not be able to just get that kind of loan instead of a refi?Or is it all about the lender making more money?
Your problem may have to do with what lender you are asking the question.
If you go to a lender that specializes in refi. They want to do a refi.
If you to the lender that specializes in Heloc they will want to give you that. If your home has been on the market for sale in the last year, you may have trouble getting the Home equity line of credit.
Best of luck to you,
It could be both or neither. Some states may not allow a second deed of trust. That would be state law. With that said there is very little money to be maid in a second trust deed in most cases. It also is dependent upon your scores, the capacity to pay (debt to income ratio) since second trust deed are at a much higher rate. And last but not least the collateral. You say you have equity in the home- Fannie Mae Freddie Mac only allow cash out to 90% of the value with a 660 score or better. I will need more info to answer your question properly.

Equity loans have tougher guidelines
The following site has a free quote feature for home equity loans. That way you can see what you actually qualify for and you won't have someone pushing you toward a refinance loan
There are many factors that could be effecting your situation. First you are ging to have to have enough equity. Lenders oftten want to see a good margin of equity after you take the loan and costs out of the home. You May not be asking for enough money. Most equity lines ask that you take a minimum amount out with the closing of the loan. This amountis often 40K or more. Your credit may also be efffecting thier decision. Equity lines are like secured credit cards with great rates. Most lenders require very high credit scores to draw an equity loan, if yours is lower then you will need to have even more equity than others. The final piece of the puzzle is income. Equity lines work very similar to mortgages when income is considered. You will have to have enough income to make the payments on the mortgage and the equity loan to qualify. If you go to a good broker, they will be able to show you all of your options.
It is not about the lender making more money on a refi - it is based on your middle credit score. Normally a HELOC takes a very good credit of 680 + That is why they suggested your doing a cash-out refinance and taking out some of your equity. You could go FHA, still get a great rate and take out some of your equity. Do you need the full 100 percent? Take out 8-=90 percent and have good rate, fixed for 30 years. You could also do a stand alone 2nd (it is like a HELOC) but you have the same closing costs associated with a first mortgage. It all comes back to credit.
How does a home equity loan work?
I need to know all the details and if it is a good choice. I have payed off my vehicle and credit cards and have none, but I have alot of student loan debt. Our dilema are the student loans. And paying them. I have heard about home equity loans and heard about being tax deductible. How do they work? Do they look bad on your credit? How much can you borrow ? Does it add to the years to pay off your house? We only have eleven years left to pay as it is right now. Just wondering what is a good option. I even thought that after I graduate and am working that my pay checks can go all to my student loans. I am just looking for some good ideas without having to stress out about debt and bills and such. We are trying to pay our bills off and so far have done good. But those student loans are looming in the background.
I'm not sure why you would want to get a home equity loan to pay off student loans. Typically interest rates on student loans are much lower than home equity loans. It is true that you can use interest paid on a home equity loan as a tax deduction, but you can also use interest paid on student loans as a deduction.
a home equity loan is a loan tha you can borrow from. its just like a second mortgage. yes it will add to how much longer you will own you home. you can borrow the difference in how much left you have to pay on your home and what you already paid. shot me an email if you would like me to help you get this loan. depending on what state you live in.
Pulling equity out of your house does not sound like a good option to refinance your student loans. You said you are trying to pay your bills off, what you will actually be doing is trading out student loan debt for home equity debt, which is a bad trade off and is not paying off your bills since you won't be reducing your debt. Most likely the student loans will carry a lower interest rate than the home equity loan, but more importantly, if you can't afford to make student loan payments at some point in your life your lender will work with you because it is unsecured debt. If you fall on hard times and can't pay your ORIGINAL purchase money mortgage, the lender can foreclose on your home since that was the collateral but (in most cases) can't come after your other assets. When you refinance your home, pull equity out of your home, or accrue any non-purchase money debt against your home you are exposing the rest of your assets to your lender. If you elect to do what you suggest and you are unable to make payments at some point in your life, your lender can come after all of your assets as opposed to none, with the student loan.
Also, student loan interest is tax deductible.

What is a home equity loan and what is the process to applying/being accepted for one?
I paid roughly $90,000 for my home. It was a TLC home and I've fixed it up in the past 9 years dramatically. New roof, new walls, siding, porch, heating system, well etc. My home and property was valued at $275,000 last year. Does equity play a part in this. Am I eligable for an equity loan? I don't want to go into it without fully understanding what it is--I also don't want to go to my banker with stupid questions....Another thing. Im looking to build my own home--hence the loan inquisition.
Let's say you owe around $70K for your house & it now appraises for $275K, you can "cash out" some of your equity.
Equity is the difference between what you owe & what the home is worth or appraised at now.
There are many programs for "cashing out" equity. You could get up to 100% of your equity out. I do not suggest this &your interest rate on your equity loan will be a lot higher.
You could cash out say 80%, based on my #'s above that would total about $164,000.
& you could use this money towards a down payment & for construction costs with the home you're interested in building.
You want to make sure you're using your money with the best programs. Talk to a lender who will show you the pros & cons. Don't use all of your liquid cash to sink into building a home, leverage, leverage, leverage & talk to the lender about a "Construction to Perm" loan. (Construction to finished product)
An equity loan is a loan against the difference in your home's value and any outstanding liens you currently have (like your 1st mortgage). The new equity loan takes a 2nd lien position to your 1st mortgage and is sometimes called a second mortgage, which is the same as an equity loan.
Some banks and direct lenders require "seasoning" which means you have to own your home for sometimes 12 months before you can use the new value. Therefore I recommend you seek the assistance of a mortgage broker. Brokers work with several different lenders and will have options available to you right now. They can also explain the various types of equity loans available and can offer rates that are the same or lower than local banks. They also have several "no-cost" loans as well.
Since you're looking to build a home, you may not need all your equity out at once. I recommend an equity line of credit where you can borrower and pay for only what you need when you need it. Equity lines can be fixed or variable, have interest-only payments or include principal payments. Again, talk to your local broker to get all the details.

How do you pull equity out of your home with taking a how equity loan out?
First of all how do you build equity in a home? How do you report the equity to your lender? And lastly how to you pull the equity that you’ve built up out of the home with out taking a home equity loan out? Thank you in advance for any help that you can give me.
To build equity in your home you must either pay down the mortgage or have the market value go up. Your lender will decide if you have equity in your home. They decide how much your home is worth then they deduct how much you owe the difference is the amount of equity that you have.
Lastly, I hate to tell you, their are only three ways to get equity out of a home.
1) Get an equity line of credit.
2) Refinance, and pull some money out.
3) Sell the property.
You increase your equity every time you make a payment (assuming the property value doesn’t decrease) that's the portion that goes to principal. You can increase your equity faster with a 15 year vice 30 year mortgage. Your equity also increases as the homes value increases. A lender will need an appraisal to find your home's current value. I have seen that appraisal fudged to make the deal work out. Either way you assume more debt to get at that money (equity).
How does home equity loan qualification works if you’re self employed?
I am self employed and want to get qualified for home equity loan. What are the qualifications lenders look at. What do I need to show them and have?
Been trying to find out on the net, but can find any good resources. If you know any and dont mind sharing would be awesome.
Thanks!!!
You will most likely be required to show two years of IRS filings to prove income. Everything else is basically the same as applying for a first mortgage - house appraisal, savings/checking account statements, credit reports and scores, etc.
Can you change a home equity loan to a personal loan?
My brother-in-law took out a home equity loan and he went to refinance his house and for whatever reason the house did not appraise for what it needed to partly because of the home equity loan that he already had. He was told to pay off his home equity loan and come back to refinance his house. Is there anyway that he can change his home equity loan to a personal loan? Or would that even help? please help. thanks.
Sure, but an unsecured la will have a rate of 2% higher attached to it. Based on what you're saying the brother-in-law has enough debt already.
No, there is no way to change a low risk, secured home equity loan into a high risk, signature only, personal loan. You would have to borrow funds in a totally unrelated transaction and then pay off the home equity loan. It is not a good idea and probably would not help.
For matters pertaining to equity the authority that I go to is Marian Snow - best-selling author of "Stop Sitting on Your Assets". She talks about how to let your equity work for you, how to become your own bank, and secure your financial future. I got a lot of new ideas, and now view my money and financial management in a different way. She also tells you why your equity is your best asset, and the best strategies to employ to make the most out of this asset.

What is the difference between a mortgage and a home equity loan?
I own a home that is paid off but would like to take out a loan to fund some home improvements as well as help my parents pay off their home equity loan. Given this scenario can I take out a mortgage since mortgage rates are lower or am I limited to a home equity loan. I'm not interested in HELOC's.
Just the packaging of the financial product. Once upon a time Home Equity Loans were called 2nd mortgages. The real difference is risk factor for the bank. Typically Home Equity Loans are 2nd to be paid in the event of a foreclosure or other bad financial happening - leaving them exposed if there wans't any many for them at the end of the day. So they charge you a bit more interest to compensate for this additional risk. Since you would be leveraging your house for the 1st time again, and the holder of this new "note" would be the only creditor and thus 1st in line for payment in the event of default, lenders may negotiate a little and get you a better rate.
Its probably something you should take to a local bank or branch where you can work with a real person. I wouldn't advise trying to work this deal through an online lender.
You can easily get a fixed rate first mortgage and get cash out (equity) for your scenario. Check with your local bank or mortgage company. You are not required to take out a HELOC.
There is no difference. They are both mortgages. Both will take a lien agaisnt your property. You have a couple options.
1. You take out a set amount of money, say 50,000. You will pay payments on that until you pay it off.
2. You take out a home equity line of credit for 50,000. That is like a credit card you can pay it down and then borrower against it again. You only pay what you take out. It can go up and down.
The first choice is amortized with a fixed payment to fixed terms, the second can adjust according to what you do with the money.

No, you can take out a first mortgage. HELOC's are generally second liens on a home, but the loan structure may allow them to be first liens as well.
The major difference is how much you are committed to and the time frame in which they can be paid.
If you KNOW you need to take out $30-50K or more, then get a mortgage on your home, as these are definately the best rates. HELOC's cost more b/c you are not required to take an immediate draw, and it's actually a line of credit...much like a credit card.
You don't want to take out a HELOC if you have another alternative.
PS: $30,000 is usually the minimum for a first mortgage...HELOCS are less...that may also make a difference to you.

Mortgage repayments are generally over a much longer period of time than with a home equity loan, and the interest rates are lower with the mortgage. Go for it.
The main difference is that with a mortgage you are borrowing all of the money at once and will be paying interest on the entire amount from day one. Home equity loans allow you to draw the funds on an as needed basis and only pay on the money you are using. They are both liens on your real estate and can be in first or second position. Most equity lines adjust the interest rate based on a % over prime and are therefore similar to adjustable rate mortgages in terms of interest.
What is better, home equity loan or line of credit on home I own outright?
I just finished building my house and I have no mortgage or anything as I had enough cash to buy the land and build outright. But, I have no money left to landscape and have some medical bills I would like to pay off. Can I get a home equity loan or line of credit on my house? Which is better?
A mortgage would be your best bet when it comes to a lower interest rate.
Most banks have prepenalty payments on most of the equity type of loans. However the line of credits generally will not.
How long do you have to wait for a home equity loan?
How long after purchasing a home do you have to wait to take out a home equity loan? Do you have to re-close? Are there loan you can take out beside equity if you own a home?
You can take out a home equity loan at any time after you have purchased a house as long as you have the necessary equity to do so. Yes, you will have to "re-close" on the new loan because you will have new paperwork and a new lien will be added to the house. As for your last question, I believe you are asking about other loans you can take out if you own your home. Well, of course there are other loans that you can take out that aren't assosiated with your home, but that depends on what you are looking to finance. Anytime you use your home as collateral on a loan, the bank will put a lien against the title and will require some sort of equity available to draw from. You can try for a home improvement loan, which again is based on your equity, but there are stricter guidelines for those types of loans.
Can an equity loan be transferred from one property to another?
I would like to sell the property the equity loan was written for. Since the market is so bad, it's no longer worth what
I owe on it. I already have another property, can I transfer the loan to it?
