What a home equity loan file needs
Equity in your home
Calculated after what you still owe on the first mortgage.
A credit history the lender can price
Second liens are underwritten with care because they rank behind the first loan.
Income you can evidence
Standard documentation, or a non-QM route if you work for yourself.
A valuation
How thorough depends on the lender and the amount.
A clear amount
Unlike a HELOC, you decide the figure up front and take it in one go.
Room for a second payment
You will be servicing two loans rather than one.
No rates or figures here on purpose. Yours depend on your credit, the county and the program. A licensed loan officer gives you real numbers on the call.
What to watch for, and we will not bury it
You take it all at once
If you are unsure how much you need, a HELOC suits better. Borrowing more than necessary costs money from day one.
You now have two mortgage payments
Predictable, but two. Make sure the combined figure works before you commit.
It is secured on your home
The same as any mortgage. Fixed and predictable does not mean unsecured.

What homeowners ask about home equity loans
How is this different from a HELOC?
You take the whole amount at once and the payment stays the same. A HELOC lets you draw as needed but the rate usually moves.
Does it replace my first mortgage?
No. It sits behind it as a second lien, which is why your existing rate is unaffected.
Is the rate fixed?
That is the point of this product, and the main reason to choose it over a line of credit.
Which is cheaper, this or a cash out refinance?
It depends almost entirely on the rate you already hold. If it is low, a second lien usually wins. We price both.
Can I pay it off early?
Usually, though terms vary by lender. Worth asking before you sign rather than after.
