Home equity line of credit

By Terry Savage on April 20, 2016 |

My wife and I have a new home I may want to put another room in the basement is this a good thing for us to get a home equity line of credit to complete that project.

Terry Says:  Please read my new column on the subject.  These loans are typically interest-0nly, thus offering attractive low payments — AND the risk that rates could move higher and that you will owe a big balloon payment ten years down the road.   Can you afford that?
