HELOC cause your payments will not go up unless you buy. The assumption being that you buy something that cash-fows to address the new liability adequately. Remember though, HELOCS can have adjustable rates so payments can vary. Also fun fact, I just learned that you can refinance your primary home and keep your HELOC in place with a process called subordination. Got lower rate and kept my HELOC in place #boom.
