Home equity refers to the difference between the market value of your home and how much remains on your mortgage.
We’ll discuss what causes your home equity to increase, and how you can leverage that valuable asset in a variety of ways. Learn what a home equity loan or home equity line of credit (HELOC) is, how you can borrow against your home as collateral, and the different types of interest rates that apply.
