6 Ways

to Finance

A Renovation

If you’re planning to take on a home improvement project, you’re in good company. A recent report by the Joint Center of Housing Studies at Harvard University predicts that the home improvement industry is expected to post record-level spending this year.

As you prepare for your renovation, it’s important to review your financing options based on the size of the project, your intended repayment plan and whether you plan to use a contractor or do it yourself. Below are some financing options to consider as you talk things over with your lender.

Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC)

A HELOC can provide ongoing access to funds using the equity in your home, which typically results in lower interest rates than unsecured credit. This type of credit may also provide you potential tax benefits.

Consult your tax advisor regarding the deductibility of interest.

Mortgages with Built-In Renovation Financing

These loans help homeowners complete renovations with a loan amount that is based on an appraiser’s estimate of what the property value will be with completed improvements. This is also an option for aspiring homeowners who purchase properties that need repair. Whether a home purchase or a refinance, this option finances the renovations and mortgage in one loan.

Personal Loans and Lines of Credit These personal credit options typically offer quick credit decisions and access to funds in a day. Lines of credit provide ongoing access to funds.

Credit Card

Credit cards can be used for large or small purchases and may earn rewards, which can add up to significant benefits when you’re making big home improvement purchases. However, credit cards often have higher interest rates than other loan or credit options, which should be taken into consideration.

Savings

If you have a do-it-yourself project or a small renovation, accessing your savings might be an option. By paying cash, there is faster access to funds and nothing to repay.

Cash-Out Refinance Mortgages

A cash-out refinance replaces your current mortgage with a new and larger mortgage that pays off your current balance and allows you to use the equity in your home to provide additional funds for other purposes.

Your bank or lender may not be the best source for what color to paint your room or which walls to move, but they can help you identify your financial options. Each option has its associated benefits and considerations, and your bank can provide valuable information to help you make informed decisions about which options are right for you.

STEP UP YOUR

HOME SECURITY

BY HIRING A HOME WATCH SERVICE You’ve definitely heard of, and might even have, a home security system. You’ve likely also heard of services that come in and take care of a pet or walk them while the home owner is away. But what about hiring someone trustworthy to keep an eye on the entire property?

That’s where a home watching service comes in, and they are becoming a prolific business, which calls for some heightened awareness on the part of the consumer. Well-meaning neighbors and friends may be happy to check on things while you’re away, but a home watching service does a lot more than bring in your mail and turn the lights on and off.

A home watch service is especially important and helpful if someone has a vacation property or rental property they visit only seasonally.

y

Exterior signs of damage, wear and tear, and animal/pest intrusions.

y

Landscaping, exterior lighting and patio/ porch areas to ensure everything is in its right place and working correctly.

Second home owners and rental property owners who are away from their properties (such as in another city or state) for extended periods of time would especially benefit from someone keeping a close and watchful eye on the property.

Home watch firms provide myriad services while they’re watching your home, and even inspect your house for things that might not have happened during their watch, checking out areas such as:

y

The interior of your home, paying special attention to ensure your appliances, HVAC units and water heater are in good condition.

y y

Test lights and replace bulbs if needed.

Thoroughly inspect the attic, garage and crawl spaces.

y y

Signs of wood rot on the house.

Length of trees to ensure they are trimmed away from the house.

y

Test your smoke and carbon monoxide alarms, and home security system if installed.

y

Paint condition. No leaks in the house, especially in the attic and around windows.

y

Ensure the property is properly secured and protected.

Some home watch professionals also offer prearrival home preparations and cleanings, postdeparture cleaning, hurricane and flooding notifications, storm preparations and more.

So, upgrade the security of your home near or far by contracting a home watch service.

If you do decide to contract a home watch

service, consider one that is accredited through the National Home Watch Association (NHWA), which sets standards and provides accreditation for home watch services in the U.S. and Canada. Visit their website, to find a trusted home watch service near you.
