A home equity line of credit, or a HELOC, is a revolving line of credit that is guaranteed by the equity in your home. The line of credit is actually a second mortgage on your home giving you access to a revolving credit line you can borrow from as needed.
Very similar to a credit card, a HELOC offers a line of credit at a much lower interest rate because your home is used as the collateral for the loan.
The amount you can borrow is based on the equity in your home, which is equal to the value of the home minus the amount you owe on your primary mortgage. If your home is paid off, then the HELOC becomes the first position mortgage on your home.
