It\u2019s made of wood, brick, drywall, plumbing&#8230; But did you know that there\u2019s also potential cash value in your home?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By understanding the equity in your home, you can tap into the financial power of your home and enjoy its benefits. Inspire FCU offers <a href=\"\/borrow\/home-equity-loans-and-lines-of-credit\/\" data-type=\"page\">home equity loans and home equity lines of credit<\/a> (HELOC) to help you take full advantage of your home\u2019s value. Read on to learn more and find out how your home can help you reach your financial goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Is Home Equity?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Home equity simply means the amount of money you\u2019ve invested in the purchase of your home. It\u2019s the fair market value of the home minus any outstanding mortgage balance. Equity can increase or decrease over time depending on if you borrow against the home (e.g. using a cash out refinance), how consistent you\u2019ve been with making mortgage payments, and if your home\u2019s value decreases or increases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s take a look at an example. If you use a mortgage to buy a home for $200,000 and the remaining loan balance is $50,000 after several years of mortgage payments, the equity is $150,000.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Typically, your initial equity will be the downpayment you paid for the home. With a 10% down payment on a $200,000 home, your equity will start at $20,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Monthly mortgage payments will pay off the principal of the loan with interest. As the principal decreases, the amount your home is worth increases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How Does Home Value Affect Equity?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The more equity in your home, the better. But the value of your home will shift over time which can alter its equity. Ideally, your home\u2019s value will increase over time. This depends on the elusive, ever-changing real estate market.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your home was valued at $200,000 ten years ago but it\u2019s now valued at $250,000, your home is worth more. This is because you spent $200,000 on something that is now worth $250,000.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the market value of your home decreases over time, you\u2019ll owe more than the home is worth. This is called being underwater.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, how can you avoid your home becoming less valuable than when you bought it? One way is through home improvement projects. A kitchen remodel, landscaping, finishing a basement \u2013 these can all add value to your home and increase its equity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Renovations and home improvement projects are not known for being cheap. One strategy to pay for them is with a <a href=\"\/borrow\/home-equity-loans-and-lines-of-credit\/\" data-type=\"page\">home equity loan or HELOC<\/a>. This gives you the opportunity to borrow the necessary funds as needed and only pay back on the amount you borrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/inspirefcu.org\/business\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/dos-and-donts-of-applying-for-home-loan-1024x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-936\" srcset=\"https:\/\/inspirefcu.org\/business\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/dos-and-donts-of-applying-for-home-loan-1024x1024.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/inspirefcu.org\/business\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/dos-and-donts-of-applying-for-home-loan-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/inspirefcu.org\/business\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/dos-and-donts-of-applying-for-home-loan-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/inspirefcu.org\/business\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/dos-and-donts-of-applying-for-home-loan-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/inspirefcu.org\/business\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/dos-and-donts-of-applying-for-home-loan-700x700.jpeg 700w, https:\/\/inspirefcu.org\/business\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/dos-and-donts-of-applying-for-home-loan-600x600.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/inspirefcu.org\/business\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/dos-and-donts-of-applying-for-home-loan.jpeg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Basics Of Home Equity Loan And Home Equity Line Of Credit (HELOC)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your home\u2019s value can be used as collateral for loans and lines of credit. This is an effective way to turn your home\u2019s value into cash. When you use the cash to add value to the home, it\u2019s a win-win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Two popular options are a home equity loan and a HELOC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A fixed-rate home equity loan operates as a standard loan with a lump sum borrowed against the equity of your home. Fixed payments are made throughout the life of the loan. Terms are up to 240 months, during which time you can leverage the equity of your home to help you achieve other financial goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A HELOC, on the other hand, gives you the flexibility to use your home\u2019s value like a credit card. You borrow what you need when you need it. There\u2019s a 10-year draw period during which you can use money. Repayment will fluctuate depending on what is borrowed and the current rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Inspire FCU offers competitive rates. <a href=\"\/inspire-fcu-heloc-low-interest-high-possibilities\/\">Use this helpful guide to learn more<\/a> about the differences and benefits of home loans and HELOCs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Your Local Bucks County Credit Union<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Get the most of your home by understanding how its equity works.
