Quotes to ponder:
"A home equity line of credit is a revolving line of credit that allows you to tap into the equity you’ve built in your property."
"If you know exactly how much money you will need, for something like debt consolidation or to contribute to a child’s college education, a lump sum can be helpful."
"You are using your ownership in your home as collateral, and you could lose your house if you fall behind in your payments."
