Need some cash? Home Equity Lines are the best loans for you.

A home equity loan is a second mortgage on your home. Home equity loans are a very powerful tax-deductible financial tool. Since home equity credit is a type of mortgage, it shares lower interest rates and the tax advantages of mortgages. You can borrow up to $100,000 of your available home equity for virtually any purpose, and, in most cases, 100% of the interest paid each year is tax deductible.

When to apply for a home equity loan?

A home equity loan is a serious move because it is a second mortgage on your home. If you are seeking to pay off credit card bills, car payments, or college tuitions, you have good reasons to seek a home equity loan.

The best part about equity loans is that you can now borrow up to 100% of your home's equity and, in some situations, up to 125%. In the past, equity loans were usually limited to a total combined Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio of 80%. For example, if your home was worth $100,000, the combined total of the first mortgage and the home equity loan (second mortgage) could not exceed 80% of that value, or $80,000. If the balance on the first mortgage was $60,000, you could borrow up to $20,000 on a home equity loan. But at Your Mortgage Mall Company, we are now offering loan programs that allow you to borrow up to 125% of your home's equity (value).
