Home Equity Loan or Line of Credit
Hi - I am looking for an advice on whether or not choose Home Equity Loan or Line of Credit.
I understand the basic difference between these two financing options.
What I am trying to do is to borrow enough from either option to pay for 20% down payment for the first property I am trying to buy and have a second mortgage for the remaining 80% of the property.
With that being said, will it be better to choose Equity Loan mainly due to fixed interest rate or line of credit which gives me the fund whenever I want within the threshold?
Or am I not including other factors?
Please share your insights!
Thanks,
