What Are the Home Equity Loan Rules in Texas?

The state of Texas has some pretty interesting refinance rules. This is especially true when one wants to pull cash or equity out of their home.

There are two types of mortgage refinances. The first type is called a rate and term refinance. This is simply when someone wants to lower their rate or change the term of their original home loan. For example, someone with a 30 year mortgage at 7% may want to refinance to a 5.25%, 15 year mortgage.

In this instance they are not pulling cash out they are just changing the rate and/or the term of their original loan. During the "refinance boom" (2001-2004) many loan officer and mortgage brokers did dozens and dozens of rate and term refinances because mortgage rates dropped so low.

Most people refinance when their home loans when the market rate is much lower than their current mortgage rate. A good rule of thumb is when you can save about 1% it may make sense to refinance.

The second type of refinance is called a Texas Cash out Refinance. This is when someone wants to pull cash out of their home in addition to lowering or changing the rate or term.

Texas once outlawed the ability to pull cash out of one's home but now allow this as long as the loan meets these criteria:

80% Texas Cash Out Rule: This rule states one that the loan can not exceed 80% of the home's appraised value.

For example, if one's home is worth $100,000 and the current mortgage owed is $50,000 than an equity loan can go up to $80,000 (80% of 100k). Thereby netting the borrower $30,000, less closing costs.

3% rule: This rule state that the total fees can not exceed 3% of the loan's value. For example, if someone does a 100K equity loan the total fees can not exceed $3000. This means broker, title, survey, appraisal, underwriting, doc/prep (everything!) can't exceed 3%. This law was intended to protect borrowers but it actually penalizes lower loan amounts making it difficult for those with small loans to take advantage of their equity.

This is a great example of regulation doing the opposite than what it was intended. So for those with loan amounts under 100K, it's very difficult to do a home equity loan as state law also requires one to purchase a new title policy each time one refinance. Title policies usually run 1% of the loan amount.

However, it's important to note that the 3% law does not apply for those doing an investment cash out home equity. So it's actually easier to do a home equity loan on an investment property than on an owner occupied property in Texas!

12 Day rule: This is one of the more unique rules. Whenever you do a home equity loan your loan officer or mortgage broker will ask you to sign a 12 day form. This form states that the loan can't close until 12 days after the date of the application. I guess the state of Texas wants you to have 12 full days to think about your loan!

3 day rule: Then, after we wait 12 days, we are required to wait 3 days until we fund. Not to mention one is required to look and sign the final HUD (settlement statement) 24 hours before closing.

So to make things simple: The loan can't close for 12 days. Then, once the HUD is prepared by the title company the borrower(s) must review and sign the HUD 24 hours before we close. Then we can't fund the loan for 3 full business days.

These rules are why it often takes 30 full days to fund a Texas Cash out loan.

Oh, and by the way. The final rule...one must wait 12 full months between home equity loans. So if you do a Texas cash out one year and the price of your home goes up significantly you must wait a year before refinancing.

Because Texas home equity loans have so many rules it is important your mortgage professional truly know the rules so everything goes smoothly with your refinance.

Rev Up Financially With Lower Equity Home Loan Mortgage Rate

Vroom! Vroom! Nestled in the driver's seat, you feel like you are at home in your favorite recliner. With a firm grip at 10:00 and 2:00 on the steering wheel, you bolt down the German Autobahn with no other cars in sight. The wind whips through your hair as sunrays melt off your cool shades. You glance over at that someone special in the passenger's seat and shout out, "It doesn't get any better than this!" Suddenly, the sound of a throat being cleared causes your eyelids to sheepishly rise. The voice came from the salesman "Honest Al," who is sporting a green plaid suit that was the latest fashion...30 years ago! It hits you that you are in a car showroom. You ask Al about the lowest price he can offer you. After he replies, your jaw hits the car floor. If he had given you an equity home loan mortgage rate at relatively the same value, the result would have been the same.

Good, Better, Best

A gold nugget of shopping wisdom is that you can always find a better price. You could find a better price at a car auction than at a used car lot.

And you could find a better equity home loan mortgage rate on the Internet than at a fly-by-night mortgage lender. Although it takes some time and effort to find the best mortgage interest rate, it is definitely worthwhile. Except for those who can afford skyscrapers and corporations, houses are the biggest investment for most people. So, it pays to spend some extra time and energy to find the lowest equity home loan mortgage rate available.

A Date with Rates

Life would be easier if you could just take out a mortgage and always pay a standard equity home loan mortgage rate. But the system never works that way. Banks and construction societies are constantly updating and broadening the types of mortgages that they offer. This constantly keeps the market competitive. One of two significant aspects of mortgages is how you pay the interest on the capital. Some examples include:

* Fixed rates, in which the rate is fixed for the timeframe that is agreed upon.

* Variable rates let you pay the current rate, on your loan. The mortgage rate usually changes after interest rate changes are calculated for a year. The mortgage rate can also change each time interest rates change.

* Discounted rates apply over a set period. This program offers the borrower a price cut on the lender's variable rate. The rate paid changes according to changes in the variable rate.

* Capped rates are fixed, but you pay the lower rate in the case that rates fall.

An Engine's Rate

When searching for the best equity home loan mortgage rate from these various types, you can do the footwork yourself by using the search function at websites with equity home loan mortgage rates. Usually the search engine will request that you supply information, such as your credit profile, your home (family) description, and the type of loan. Then after clicking on the search button...BOOM! You have the info you need.

When shopping for clothing, computers, or cars, you can always find a better price. Finding the lowest equity home loan mortgage rate is no different. Speed off and find the best one today!

Is a Home Equity Loan a Good Idea?

First, what is a home equity loan? Well a home-equity loan is a second lien against your home's equity.

I always consider my home equity as a safety net for those difficult times, such as, a job loss or family illness. My rule of thumb for debt management has always been centered on how much equity I had in my house. I would never have my debt exceed my equity.

Now let's get back to the question. Is a home equity loan a good idea? If you manage your money wisely home equity loans are a good idea but only if you spend the proceeds on items that are a necessity and carry a higher interest rate that the home equity loan. A good example would be home improvements or educational needs. These items usually are quite expensive and require long pay-off periods. By using your equity you will be able to write-off your purchase interest on your federal and state taxes. Another example would be to pay-off high interest credit card and personal loans debt but you must make sure that once the debt is paid you can not accumulate any more credit card debt or you will become financially strapped.

Below are some guidelines if you're thinking about borrowing against your home's value:

Don't waste the cash. Please be aware you're attaching a new lien on the home, moving closer to the risk of foreclosure. If you do not make your payments on time, the lender has the right to foreclose on your home.

Don't accumulate more debt than you can handle. As I mentioned earlier your total debt should not exceed your homes total equity.

Evaluate the tax benefits carefully. Review the IRS Publication 936 for details.

Avoid lines of credit unless you have the discipline to make the principal payment on time.

In conclusion:

It is important to carefully consider how you plan on using the equity in your home. If it is for home improvements, education like college or medical expenses then you are adding even more value to your home and personal growth and well being, which is good. If you are using it for daily spending, vacations, cars or other items that quickly depreciate in value, then you could be risking your nest egg and run the risk of owing money on your home far longer that the average 15-30 year mortgage.

What To Look For In A Fixed Rate Home Equity Loan

If you are a homeowner, you may be tempted to get a fixed rate home equity loan. But do so cautiously. Placing a higher burden of debt upon yourself can sometimes have disastrous consequences. So before you decide that you want to get a loan to pay for that Caribbean cruise, make sure that you know exactly what you are getting yourself into.

A fixed rate home equity loan is an installment contract that you are given using the equity that you have built up in your home as collateral. You then pay back the loan over time. But you must be aware that if you default on your loan, the lender can come in and foreclose on your home. So, before you decide on a home equity loan, make absolutely sure that you will not have trouble making the extra payments.

When shopping for a fixed rate home equity loan, there are a few things that you should be aware of before you sign anything. First of all, shop around a bit for a good loan with a good interest rate. If you have a good credit rating, there is no reason why you should not receive the lowest interest rate possible. It's a good idea to get a copy of your credit report before you apply for a loan. Look for any discrepancies and have them removed before you apply for a loan.

Be wary of the fees. If you have a decent credit rating, you should not be required to pay application or processing fees. A lot of lenders like to tack on extra fees to your loan. Read all of the fine print very carefully before signing. If there is something you don't understand, don't sign it until you do.

Check with your accountant and know the tax rules before you get a loan. A lot of people think that all home equity loans are tax deductible. This is not true in all cases. If you are planning on getting a loan and are expecting a big tax break, check with your accountant before you do anything.

Use your loan proceeds wisely. Getting one to pay for a vacation may not be a wise move. But getting one for a home improvement project can be a smart move. A home improvement project can increase the value of your home and therefore be a wise investment.

Fixed rate home equity loans are wonderful things if you know exactly what you are getting yourself into. Educate yourself and you should have no trouble finding the best loan available.

Fixed Rate Second Mortgage or Variable Home Equity Line of Credit? Home Equity Report 2006

More and more Americans are cashing in on their home's equity by taking out a second mortgage. Home equity financing has evolved to meet the growing consumer demands for borrowing, spending, and building. One of the most powerful cash vehicles driving our economy is the new and improved home equity loan. Consumer debt is at an all time high, and home equity values are also peaking at all-time levels. Let's examine the primary reasons for the increasing popularity of home equity loan products.

Home equity lines of credit are revolving accounts that are considered to be second mortgages secured by real estate. These 2nd mortgage credit lines have become very accessible online. Equity lines of credit can be beneficial tools for homeowners if used properly. Helocs offer flexibility because you can borrow and re-borrow without having to start the loan process over again like you would with a traditional home equity loan. Another great home equity line benefit remains that you only pay interest on the money you access.

A few years ago, second mortgage rates hit all time lows.
Over the last year and a half, the Federal Reserve has increased the WSJ prime rates almost 3% points. Unfortunately this has had the biggest impact with variable lines of credit rates. During this record period for rates, home credit lines were over 1% lower than the traditional fixed rate home equity loan. There are many reasons people continue to take out home equity lines of credit. Some of the most common purposes for an equity line are bill consolidation, home improvements and buying a second home. What people love most about the equity credit line is the affordability feature that comes standard with low minimum payments.

On the flip-side, many homeowners like the responsible amortization that comes with fixed rate home equity loans. With these fixed rate second mortgages, each monthly payment allocates a portion to pay down both interest and principal of the loan. In 2006, fixed rate home equity loan rates are actually lower than equity lines of credit. The fixed rate mortgage is becoming increasingly attractive to consumers. Fixed rate loans offer "peace of mind" because people can go to sleep at night, knowing that their payment will not go up.

Both types of home equity financing offer lower interest rates than credit cards. Increased cash flow and lower monthly payments are great benefits of home equity. Many lenders have expanded their second mortgage guidelines for people with bad credit. Stop playing the balance transfer game with your credit cards and lock into a low rate second mortgage. In most cases, consolidating credit cards with a home equity loan will save you thousands of dollars a year.

Home Improvement: Home Equity Line of Credit against Mortgage Refinance

Making home improvements, home remodeling, adding onto a home and debt consolidation are some of the most popular reasons people cash out on their home equity. But the question is, which should you choose, mortgage refinancing or a home equity line of credit (HELOC)?

A mortgage refinance loan is when you replace your current mortgage with a new loan. People refinance their mortgages for a variety of reasons including, refinancing from adjustable rate mortgages (ARMs) to fixed interest rate ones, liquidating equity into cash (cash-out refinance) or to reduce monthly payments and extend the loan term. A mortgage refinance has the same costs as a mortgage, such as loan application fees, loan origination fees, and appraisal fees.

A variable rate HELOC, where the interest rate and annual percentage rate (APR) can move up or down, depending on the Prime Rate published daily in the Wall Street Journal, is one of two popular second mortgage options, with the other being a home equity installment loan (HEIL). HELOC second mortgages provide you with the flexibility of borrowing all or part of your equity and you only pay interest on what you use unlike a HEIL or refinance. Because HELOCs work like credit cards, you can pay down your balance and borrow again without having to apply for a new loan. And, according to ehow.com, there are no closing costs for second mortgages, as there are with refinancing.

If you have an adjustable rate or high interest rate mortgage that you want to refinance into a lower fixed rate while cashing out on equity for home improvements or other purposes, a mortgage refinance may work the best for you. However, according to ERATE.com, if the rate on your existing first mortgage is substantially lower than that of current market rates and if you have been making payments on your mortgage for a period of five years or more, then a second mortgage may be a more sensible financial solution than starting over with a new first loan.

Benefits of a Fixed Rate Home Equity Line of Credit

A fixed rate home equity line of credit gives you easy access to low interest credit. It also provides you with stability, helping you know how much your rates will always be. The greatest savings can be seen over time if rates increase. So, even if you don't plan on using that credit line now, it may be a good idea to keep it open for the future.

Easy Access to Low Interest Line of Credit

With your home's equity as your collateral, you can qualify for low rates with a home equity line of credit. Compared to other sources of credit, you will find it hard to secure a better rate on credit, and interest paid is deductible from your taxes in most cases.

Unlike an equity loan, you can access your credit when you need it. Usually a debit-like card is issued to you from the lender. You can use it like a credit card.

Fixed Interest Rates Offer Long Term Stability

Fixed rates provide a borrower with stability, always knowing what their rates will be. This is especially good when rates are low. However, adjustable rates may initially be low. In some cases, rates can even drop.

Fixed rates are for those that want the security of a permanent rate. While not without risk, fixed rates can give peace of mind. Remember too that with most lenders you can either convert or refinance your line of credit to an adjustable rate in the future.

Long Term Savings with a Fixed Rate Line of Credit

For long term debt, a fixed rate can potentially see an interest savings for borrowers. By locking in a low rate now, you will see a savings if rates rise. Over the long term, this could save you some significant cash.

With a line of credit, you don't have to use it. So if rates are significantly low, consider opening an account to use in the future when/if rates are higher. You always have the option of closing the account if rates are high and opening one with lower rates.

Before applying for credit, be sure to compare both rates and fees to find the most competitive financing package.

Second Mortgages, Home Equity Loans And Bankruptcy

It is not uncommon to have a first mortgage and a second mortgage or a home equity loan on your home. Even though the amount of the second mortgage or home equity loan is less than your first mortgage, the interest rate that you are paying is usually much higher. You may be wondering if there is anything that can be done to reduce these encumbrances on your property. It may mean the difference between being able to keep your home or losing it because you cannot afford the payments, or worse, your house is being foreclosed on.

The answer is that there are certain situations in which that second mortgage or home equity loan can be modified, or as it is known in bankruptcy language, "stripped off." The first requirement is that a Chapter 13 bankruptcy be filed. (Chapter 7 bankruptcies do not allow for modification of a second mortgage or home equity loan). How this is done is best illustrated by the following examples:

1) You own a house that has a value of $300,000.00 at the time you file bankruptcy. The first mortgage is $325,000.00. The second mortgage or home equity loan is $75,000.00. That $75,000.00 can be "stripped off" and be treated the same as your other unsecured debt. If your Chapter 13 Plan calls for paying 10% to unsecured creditors, you will be paying $7,500.00 over the life of your Chapter 13 bankruptcy, which is between 3 and 5 years. If your payment plan is 20%, then you will pay $15,000.00 over that period of 3 to 5 years.

2) In this example, let's also assume that your home is worth $300,000.00 at the time you file bankruptcy. The first mortgage is $275,000.00. The second mortgage or home equity loan is $75,000.00. The $75,000.00 cannot be "stripped off." The rule is that if even one cent attaches to equity, you do not qualify for a "strip off." This means that if your first mortgage on your $300,000.00 home is $299,999.99 or less, the "strip off" provision of the bankruptcy law will not help you.

In conclusion, "lien stripping" may be an effective way to save your home because you are unable to make the second mortgage payments or are in foreclosure. You will be able to lower your monthly payments and eventually entirely eliminate your second mortgage or home equity loan.

Your Equity May Disappear in foreclosure

Although many properties that currently have little equity in foreclosure or even upside down (the hosts have more on the loan than the home is worth), a significant number of homeowners have a large stock position in their homes. But if the bank and try to prevent the property to a sheriff's sale, foreclosure victims often find two disturbing truths about the foreclosure process. Banks may eat the equity in the propertythroughout the process and properties often sell at trustee sale is expected for much less than the landlords and apartment.

In general, if a house has a large amount of equity in the property, increase the potential for foreclosure that if not stopped in equity. Qualifying for a loan in foreclosure is often much easier if the property has more than 25-30% of the equity. Although these loans can be very expensive, which allow short-term solution, with the hosts and the apartment are thepay the mortgage before you start a new carry-on time and save their homes. Another option, with a position of greater equity is selling the property is actually strengthened. In this case, the victims of foreclosure to reduce the price of their house to a minimum, enticing buyers who seek an agreement. Even if the seller can walk with little or proceeds from the sale to pay the entire loan have any, and avoid any tax consequences of a shortSale.

If the property has significant equity and homeowners are unable to find a solution to avoid foreclosure, but there are three considerations that must be considered. First, once the loan goes into foreclosure the mortgage company will accelerate late fees, interest, court costs and 'legal fees and other miscellaneous expenses. This starts were quickly devoured at any time of the equity owners had been able, and the longer theHouse is in foreclosure, can go as high fees. Homeowners who are unable to plan together to prevent a foreclosure can quickly discover that they are locked in the house because it is so much that you had no options.

The second consideration relates to the property sold before the Sheriff. Once the house is sold, it will be all the proceeds from the sale of what is required to pay the mortgage and related costs include going to the vendors. In this case, theEquity they have left is to pay with the sale. In combination with the lender accelerates the loan, but it is important that homeowners list of properties for sale immediately and try to find a possible buyer, as soon as. Starting from a low price is often higher starting point, such as accelerated tax with time, the hosts that are able to raise prices just to pay off the loan and walk away withnothing.

Finally, if the House can use their shares to qualify, the loan to stop a foreclosure or sale, there is little chance it will sell the proceeds of the sheriff. Currently, mortgage company will be added to complete so many fees and costs because they can legally, it is unlikely that the loan the property will be auctioned for an amount to be paid. In addition, the lender is usually the only bidder at the sale, andYour maximum bid is often less than what is owed, or exactly what is owed, leaving the house with nothing.
