Learn About Financing Options

There are several different options for financing a home remodeling project. It helps to understand the possible avenues for accessing funds, what the requirements are for each, and how the interest rates differ for each option.

01.

Credit Card Line of Credit

Most credit card companies will offer you a card with a line of credit up to XXXXX, but with rates averaging 16-17% this is the least favorable option on the market due to the high interest rates.

02.

Personal Loan

A personal loan can be quite effective if you have an excellent credit history and FICO score. It does not require collateral, so you are not required to put your home up as security, but rates offered will depend on how good your FICO score is.

03.

Home Equity Loans

This is a loan you take out using your home’s equity as collateral. Since you are using your property as collateral you can borrow money at a fixed rate that is lower than most other types of loans. You get all money up front and pay it back in installments plus interest. Typically, home equity loans average 5-6% interest rates, though some can be lower.

04.

Home Equity Line of Credit

This option also uses your home as collateral but rather than getting all funds up front, you borrow the money as you need it, up to a maximum line of credit value. Consider this option like a credit card, but where your home is collateral, and the rates are much more favorable.

05.

Mortgage

Another option is to refinance your mortgage and combine it with your home improvement costs into a new mortgage. Your new mortgage calculation will be based on the value of your home post-renovation, which means you can borrow more and get more favorable terms. Your Good-Better-Best budget detailing exactly what you will be investing and what changes you propose to make will be very useful in discussing a new mortgage with your broker. Mortgage rates average about 3% now, offering a very favorable option for financing your project.
