What Is a HELOC?

A Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) is a revolving line of credit secured by your home's equity. Unlike a traditional loan, a HELOC works like a credit card, you draw funds as needed during the draw period (typically 5–10 years), then repay during the repayment period (typically 10–20 years). Interest is only charged on what you actually use.

HELOC vs. Home Equity Loan vs. Cash-Out Refinance

• HELOC: Variable rate, flexible draw period, best for ongoing expenses or projects
• Home Equity Loan: Fixed rate lump sum, best for one-time large expenses
• Cash-Out Refinance: Replaces your first mortgage with a new, larger loan at today's rates; best when current rates are competitive

Greg Rank can help you evaluate all three options and recommend the one that best fits your financial goals and current Indiana market conditions.

How Much Can You Borrow with a HELOC in Indiana?

Most Indiana lenders allow you to borrow up to 85–90% of your home's appraised value, minus your existing mortgage balance. For example: if your Indiana home is worth $450,000 and you owe $250,000, you may be able to access a HELOC of up to $155,000–$155,000 (85% of $450K = $382,500 minus $250,000).
