Home Equity HELOC Report
During the real estate boom the demand for home equity lines of credit increased climbed sharply as property values rose, interest rates fell and lenders made it easy for borrowers to tap their equity for everything from home improvements to vacations. Borrowing against home equity freed up roughly $187 billion in cash per year between 2001 and 2005 that was used to pay off other debts and for new spending, according to a recent paper by former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan and Fed economist James Kennedy.
Now, the slowdown in home-equity borrowing is leading to weaker sales in some markets for autos, building materials and electronics, says Mark Zandi, chief economist of Economy.com. The slowdown has been particularly notable in parts of the country that are suffering most from housing and mortgage corrections, including Boston, Minneapolis, Miami, Las Vegas and Washington.
Rising short-term home equity rates drove rates for home equity lines of credit to an average of 8.7%, up from as little as 4.64% in April 2004, according to HSH Associates. HELOC’s carry a variable interest rate, usually tied to the prime-lending rate, and give homeowners the right to borrow up to a certain amount, either all at once or over time.
