Checking your rate takes a few minutes and won't affect your credit score. No in-person appraisal needed for lines under $400,000.
Check my rateEstimates only, based on the figures you entered. Not an offer or commitment to lend. Actual rates and terms depend on credit approval, appraisal, and eligibility.
Why a HELOC instead of a refi?
Both get you cash from your equity, but they do it in very different ways — and one is usually more expensive than it needs to be.
Usually the better fit
Business HELOC
- Your existing first mortgage stays exactly as it is, rate and all. If you locked in a low rate years ago, a HELOC does not touch it.
- Draw what you need, when you need it, so you are not paying interest on a lump sum sitting in your account.
- Lower closing costs and a faster close, typically days instead of the weeks a full refinance takes.
- Redraw as you repay, so the same line can serve future needs.
Worth it in one case
Cash-Out Refinance
- Replaces your entire first mortgage at a new rate, worth considering if your current rate is higher than today’s rates.
- One fixed payment for the full balance, which can simplify things if you want one loan instead of two.
- You receive the entire amount as a lump sum and pay interest on all of it from day one, whether you use it yet or not.
- Higher closing costs and a longer process, since you are closing on the entire mortgage again.
The short version: if your current mortgage rate is good, a HELOC lets you tap equity without giving that rate up. If your current rate is already high, a full refinance may be worth comparing too.
