What do you want to use the funds for?
“We had $180,000 in equity and needed $75,000—kitchen remodel plus paying off credit cards at 22% interest. Emmett set us up with a HELOC at 8.5%. We paid off the cards immediately and save over $800 a month. The flexibility to draw only what we need has been perfect.”
