HELOC
A HELOC, or Home Equity Line of Credit, lets you borrow against the equity in your home as a revolving line of credit rather than a lump sum. Much like a credit card secured by your home, you can draw funds as you need them, up to an approved limit, and pay interest only on the amount you actually use.
A HELOC has two phases: a draw period, when you can borrow and reborrow, and a repayment period, when the balance is paid down. It is a flexible way to fund home improvements, consolidate higher-interest debt, cover education costs, or handle large or unexpected expenses.
