Which home improvement loan makes the most sense for you?
Home Equity Loan or Second Lien Mortgage
A home equity loan — or second lien purchase — is a mortgage that allows you to borrow against the value of your home. If your home is worth more than you owe on it, you can use the loan funds for whatever purpose you like.
Home equity loans typically feature lower interest rates (as low as 3.99% APR) than traditional mortgages or unsecured personal loans (that is, loans not backed up by collateral). Qualifying for a home equity loan is also a fairly painless process, provided that your current mortgage account is in good standing.
A home equity loan can allow you to borrow a sizable sum of money, especially if you are carrying a low balance on your mortgage. To estimate how much you can borrow, subtract the outstanding balance on your mortgage from the current market value of your home.
You can receive your home equity loan funds either via a lump sum or through a line of credit. In some cases, you can even take a tax deduction on the interest you pay on this type of loan.
Home Improvement Loan
Whether you’re looking to remodel your kitchen or increase your home’s energy efficiency, you can do so with a home improvement loan. At Resource One, unsecured home improvement loan rates currently start as low as 5.25% APR.
In some cases, simply refinancing your existing mortgage can provide you with the funds you need to strengthen your investment in your home.
