Smart Ways to Put
Your Equity to Work

πŸ”¨

Home Renovations

Kitchen remodel, bathroom addition, finished basement β€” investments that increase your home's value and your quality of life.

Investment Property

Use equity from your primary home as the down payment on an investment property. Build your real estate portfolio.

Business Investment

Fund a startup, buy equipment, or invest in your business using the equity you've built as a homeowner.

HELOC & Home Equity FAQ

Most lenders allow you to borrow up to 80–85% of your home's appraised value, minus your existing mortgage balance. For example, if your home is worth $400,000 and you owe $220,000, you may be able to access up to $100,000–$120,000.
Most lenders require a minimum credit score of 620–640 for a HELOC or home equity loan. Higher scores typically get better rates. Patrick works with multiple lenders to find the best match for your credit profile.
HELOC interest may be tax deductible if the funds are used to "buy, build, or substantially improve" your home. Consult your tax advisor for your specific situation. Interest used for other purposes (debt consolidation, etc.) is generally not deductible under current tax law.
Typically 3–6 weeks from application to funding, depending on how quickly the appraisal is scheduled and documents are submitted. Patrick will give you a realistic timeline upfront and keep you informed throughout.
Yes, though the terms are somewhat different than on a primary residence. Lenders typically require more equity and charge slightly higher rates on investment properties. Ask Patrick about your specific situation.
Your HELOC must be paid off at closing, just like your primary mortgage. The balance is deducted from your sale proceeds. Patrick can help you understand how this fits into your overall financial picture.
