So i outright own the home no mortgage or anything, its all paid. i used up the rest of my cash fixing the place up and having water put in and everything, so i could take out a loan to finish everything else. I still need a roof, windows, siding etc. the next cheapest home in the neighborhood is 80k and its a pile of crap too but on avg the homes are 120+ easy. its a 3 bed 1300sq ft ranch and

I will try to make this short, it is complicated. We own 2 commerical buildings, and our home. We have been trying to pay down credit cards for 4 years now with Consumer Credit Counselors. Well economy is terrible, lost my job, and have taken a huge pay cut at my new one. We just quit paying on 3 of our 6 cards, so our credit will be bad. We have never missed a mortgage payment of any kind ever. Our adjustable rate home equity just doubled in monthly payment, and we can only see doom. We have a lot of equity in our commercial buildings with an SBA loan, but would not like to touch that now, (with our credit we probably couldn’t). We are going under, and will not declare bankruptcy for many reasons, just can’t. How can we get our cash flow better with bad credit? Can we talk anyone into combining our two mortgages? (our first is fixed with a great rate). We need help fast! What can we do?

I have less than 15% equity in my home and need to consolidate some bills. My FICO is right at 530 and I have one late mortgage payment about 3 months ago. The amount I need is about 10% equity in my home, but can’t find a lender willing to let me have the money with such a low score. At this point in time, the interest rate is not as important as getting some things paid before they begin to affect my credit even more. Anyone know of any companies out there that will go with a 100% equity loan with my bad credit score?

A home equity loan allows you to borrow money using the equity in your home as security. By equity we mean the market value minus any mortgage or loan amount attached to it. You can borrow the money as a loan, as you have paid down the original home loan in order to build up equity.

To make things clearer, let’s say you had originally bought your home for $200,000 and you have managed to pay the loan amount down to $175,000. The home has now appreciated in value and the cost of the home as per the current rates is worth $250,000. You can potentially take out a home equity loan for $75,000.

There are quite a few benefits for the borrower as well as the lender for home equity loans. For the borrower, he or she can get a lower interest rate on a home equity loan compared to other types of loans. In addition, if the borrower has bad credit, he or she may still be able to get a home equity loan.

The lender does not have a cause for worry because the borrower is using the equity built on the home as collateral. In case the borrower defaults paying back the loan, the lender can sell it off to recover the money from the existing equity. For the benefit of the borrower, the interest payable on the loan is tax deductible. Usually the home equity loan gives you the benefit to borrow a bigger amount compared to other types of loans.

If you are planning for a large expenditure or investment like buying a car, funding for education, or planning a trip, you will find the home equity loan quite helpful. The interest rates are fairly low compared to other kinds of loans, including credit cards.  In some cases, you may also be able to consolidate debts that have a high interest rate and pay them off with a lower interest home equity loan.

While looking for a loan the initiative thought that comes first in to a homeowners mind is to secure his house from the lenders. Succeeding that, the loan seeker tries to derive maximum benefits. Having scrutinized all such assumptions, lending institutions have calculated and formatted home equity loan. Before applying for equity home loan, it is necessary to know what equity means. Equity defines as the residual market value of the home or in other words, the value of your home from the time it has been purchased.

With the help of home equity loan, the borrower retains the ownership of the house but partially. But once the loan is repaid the borrower will again own the house. In home equity loan, the borrower of the loan or the homeowner need not have to move his house.

Based up on the equity of the house, an applicant can withdraw loan. But under this scheme, applicants can obtain the amount up to £1,00,000 and repayment tenure extends to a maximum of 25 years. The rate of interest in such loan depends upon the various aspects, such as income ability, credit score, and debt to equity ratio.

Applicants having bad credit status can also secure the loan. With the help of home equity loan, bad credit holders can strengthen and improve their financial status.

Home equity loan are classified in to two types viz. home equity line of credit and traditional home equity loan. The later can be entitled as second mortgages in which lenders approves a fixed sum of amount to those who purchased a new home. But, in home equity line of credit, applicants having home are entitled to a credit limit and can use the fund for multiple purposes at the equivalent time.

After having acquired the a to z knowledge of home equity loan, look for the suitable lender. For a better result, you should feel free to take recommendations of financial experts.

I am currently in a bad financial situation. I have terrible credit and can’t even get approved for a new credit card. My monthly payments on my car and credit cards are too much for me to handle. Recently, I have even been having trouble making my mortgage payment. The sad thing is that my mortgage payment is currently only $900. I currently owe $12,000 on my mortgage and my house is worth anywhere between $600,000 and $800,000.
I want an equity loan of $100,000. I will use this money to pay off all other debt and help fund my son’s college education. I do have steady income and will have no problem making the payment on this loan.
Are there any good company’s that will finance my loan? I am afraid that if I apply to too many places I will ruin my chances of getting the loan because I know that each failed application has a adverse affect on my credit score. Any help is appreciated.
