A home equity line of credit, or HELOC, has some unique advantages over loans. With ten years of interest-only revolving credit followed by a 15-year repayment period, it can be a great solution for some situations you may not have considered.
Consolidating debt.
A HELOC is one way to consolidate high-interest debt. Plus, as you pay it off you will still have a low-rate line of credit to use if you run into unexpected expenses.
Paying for education.
Using a HELOC can be a good alternative to student loans, whether for yourself, your children, or your grandchildren. The rates are usually lower and the interest-only payment options give you flexibility.
Buying a boat or other large purchase.
With boat inventory struggling to keep up with demand, having to wait on a traditional loan could lead to someone else landing your dream boat. With a HELOC, you can offer cash.
