PASADENA, CA - JULY 14:  Some people are allow...

If you are like most homeowners you have considered using a home equity line of credit to get out of debt with high interest rate credit cards. There are at rate credit cards. There are at least two schools of thought to consider if you want to get a home equity loan for such a thing.

One thing is that using your home as collateral to get out of debt is risky. Why? If you fail to make the home equity payments you can lose your home. Still yet, the days of your home equity high are gone. Remember, equity is the difference between how much you owe on the mortgage and how much the home is worth. For example, let’s say your home is worth $57,000. In today’s market, it may be worth $65,000. The difference, equity, is $8,000. If you decide to take out this loan remember you now are adding another bill to your already overloaded expenses, so make sure you can handle this before doing it so you will not be facing foreclosure, as a result.

Another option would be to cut up the high interest rate credit card and pay more than the minimum until you get the card paid off. Do not close the account when you are paying it down because that can affect your credit negatively.
