How your home can help you buy another property
Mortgage BasicsYour home can help you buy another property in a few different ways:
- Home Equity Loan: If you have built up equity in your home, you may be able to take out a home equity loan, which is a loan that uses your home as collateral. You can use the proceeds from the loan to purchase another property.
- Cash-Out Refinance: Another option is to refinance your existing mortgage and take out some of the equity in cash. This is known as a cash-out refinance and can provide you with the funds needed to purchase another property.
- Etc.
It’s important to carefully consider your financial situation and goals before using your home to purchase another property. Talk to a financial advisor or mortgage professional to determine the best option for your individual needs.
