What is a home equity line of credit?
A home equity line of credit — or HELOC — allows you to tap into your home's equity with a reusable line of credit you can access whenever you need the money, such as to pay off debt, make home improvements, and cover other expenses.

Can you use HELOC funds to pay off a mortgage?
What's the difference between a home equity line of credit and mortgage refinance?
Mortgage Refinance: A mortgage refinance loan pays off the remaining balance of your existing home loan and replaces it with a new mortgage loan. This is different from a home equity line of credit because it replaces your existing mortgage with another mortgage instead of being an additional lien on your home. You may refinance your home to borrow additional money for expenses or to receive a lower interest rate. Unlike a home equity line of credit, there are generally bank fees associated with refinancing.
