If financing is part of your plan, then obviously it’s a big advantage for you to know in advance how much money you can borrow for your backyard project. Here are a few helpful tips for you to consider as you investigate financing.
TIP #1: What Type of Loan is Best For You?
There are basically 2 ways to get financing for your pool project:
- Home Improvement Loan
- Refinancing of your existing home loan
There are advantages and disadvantages of each. It’s usually best to talk to a lender or call us to find out which of these will be best for you and your situation.
TIP #2: How Much Equity Do I have?
Do you know how much equity there is in your home? It’s fairly easy to calculate:
- Go to www.Zillow.com, enter your address, and find the “ESTIMATED MARKET VALUE” of your home.
- Alternatively, you can search your county tax records for the “tax assessed value” of your home.
- Then call your mortgage company for your CURRENT BALANCE(s). If you have a 2nd mortgage, you must include that in the current balance to the first mortgage balance.
- Subtract CURRENT BALANCE from ESTIMATED MARKET VALUE to determine your EQUITY.
- Most lenders will let you borrow up to 80% of your equity.
TIP #3: Talk to a lender.
A quick conversation with your favorite banker (or one of ours, below) will get you on the right path.
