What is a HELOC?
A Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) is a flexible loan that allows you to borrow against the equity in your home. It works like a credit card, you have a set limit, and you can borrow, repay, and borrow again as needed. It’s ideal for funding renovations, education expenses, consolidating debt, or other big purchases.
