Is it better to borrow against home equity when you still have a first mortgage?
January 27th, 2008 | by admin |GoGators asked:
Our house will be paid off next year. We have some major home improvements to do in the near future. Will borrowing costs be more if we borrow against the equity after the first mortgage is paid off, or does it matter?

The improvements and you have tons of equity odds are you can get new first mortgage taking out enough cash to cover the improvements and you will be better off.

The 1st you might consider refinancing your 1st getting equity out it may be lower interest rate that way.
