Banks Again Offering Home Equity Lines

Now might be a good time for homeowners who still have plenty if equity in their home to tap into it.

Homeowners with more than 20 percent of equity in their homes may find the HELOC a better source of emergency cash than a credit card as long as they don’t exhaust their equity.
