Line of Credit / Equity Line
This is a pre-approved limit of money you can borrow against the value of your home, either in its entirety or in bits at a time.
The popularity of these loans is due to its flexibility and ability to reduce mortgages quickly provided that you are disciplined.
A line
of credit is normally 5 years. Longer terms are available. With most banks you only have to pay interest on the money that you use ( or draw down).
Interest rates are variable and due to the level of flexibility are often higher than the standard
variable rate. Some lines of credit will allow you to capitalise the interest until you reach your
credit limit i.e. use your line of credit to pay off the interest on your line of credit. Most of these
loans have a monthly, half yearly or annual fee attached.
These loans are suited to people who are financially responsible and already have property
and wish to use their property or equity in their property for renovations, investments or
personal use.
