What do we mean? Well, accountability stems from the affordable flexibility of these tools. Put another way, you are in control for the amount, use, and repayment of these home equity lines of credit, and from day one you will have to make important decisions regarding your financial future: You choose when to access the money and how much you want to access at a specific time. You decide when you want to start repayments - usually the first ten years of a HELOC are interest only, adjustable rate terms. You don't have to repay any of the loan principal, but it will help if you get started early. Finally, its on your head if you spend more or less than you initially planned - a $50K HELOC means you can take out up to $50k, you do not need to access that amount. The risk is almost completely on your shoulders when you apply for a home equity line of credit, making them affordable, flexible, powerful opportunities for the tenacious and money conscious home owner.
