LOAN OPTIONS / HOME EQUITY

Keep your mortgage. Use your equity.

A home equity loan or line of credit lets you borrow against the home you already own without replacing your current mortgage. ShayMak offers both. Tell us what you’re planning and we’ll walk through the options.

Review a second mortgage against a cash-out refinance so you keep the loan that costs less overall.

THE DETAILS

THE DETAILS

Home equity loans and second mortgages

01 · Keep your current mortgage

A second mortgage sits behind your existing loan, so you keep its rate and term. You take on a second monthly payment for the amount you borrow.

02 · Fixed amount or a line of credit

ShayMak offers both. A home equity loan pays out a lump sum with a set payment. A home equity line of credit lets you draw as you need it. There is no maximum amount; what you can borrow depends on your equity, credit and income.

03 · Compare it with a cash-out refinance

If your current rate is higher than today’s, replacing the whole mortgage may cost less. If it’s lower, a second mortgage usually makes more sense. We’ll run both with your numbers.

Payment estimates

Calculators are educational tools. Results use your inputs and assumptions and are not a rate quote, Loan Estimate, preapproval or guarantee. Actual payments and costs may differ. Include taxes, insurance, mortgage insurance and association dues where applicable.

Refinancing and home equity

Refinancing can involve closing costs and may increase total interest or extend repayment. A lower monthly payment does not necessarily mean a lower total cost. Compare the proposed terms with your existing loan. Borrowing against your home puts your home at risk if you cannot repay.
