SMART INVESTMENT

Renovations That Pay for Themselves

Strategic home renovations aren't just about comfort—they're investments that increase your home's value. Using low-interest home equity to fund renovations with high ROI is one of the smartest financial moves homeowners can make.

Unlike credit cards at 20%+ interest, home equity financing at 6-9% keeps more money in your pocket while you build lasting value in your property.

Example:A $50,000 kitchen renovation financed at 7% over 10 years costs about $580/month—and could add $40,000+ to your home's value immediately.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Home Renovation Loan FAQs

How much can I borrow for home renovations?

You can typically borrow up to 80% of your home's current value minus your mortgage balance. For major renovations that will increase home value, some lenders will consider the after-renovation value.

HELOC vs. home equity loan for renovations—which is better?

For ongoing projects with variable costs, a HELOC's flexible draw feature works well. For fixed-budget projects, a home equity loan's lump sum and fixed payments provide certainty. We'll help you choose.

Can I get renovation financing with limited equity?

Yes. If you have at least 20% equity, we have options. For newer homeowners with less equity, we can explore renovation-specific mortgage products that factor in post-renovation value.

How fast can I get funds for my renovation?

HELOCs can be set up in 2-4 weeks. Private lending options can fund in as little as 5-7 days for time-sensitive projects.
