I need to know all the details and if it is a good choice. I have payed off my vehicle and credit cards and have none, but I have alot of student loan debt. Our dilema are the student loans. And paying them. I have heard about home equity loans and heard about being tax deductible. How do they work? Do they look bad on your credit? How much can you borrow ? Does it add to the years to pay off your house? We only have eleven years left to pay as it is right now. Just wondering what is a good option. I even thought that after I graduate and am working that my pay checks can go all to my student loans. I am just looking for some good ideas without having to stress out about debt and bills and such. We are trying to pay our bills off and so far have done good. But those student loans are looming in the background.

I'm not sure I understand, so you want to move the debt to something else (Home equity Loan) and call it a good financial decision. The tax write off isn't worth it, because imagine if you lost your job and you put a lean on your home. Not a good idea. You stated that you don't have CC and car debt. So work like heck to pay off the school loans. Get it done.

It depends on your interest rates. Typically SLs have very low interest rates and very long repayment terms, 20, 25, even 30 yrs. If that is what you have, that is probably the most inexpensive use of someone else's capital that you will have in your lifetime. So you should keep the SL for its entire term, don't prepay any of it. Instead, use your income stream for better things, build your famiy wealth - ie, your 401k's, your Roth IRA's, a taxable investment account, etc.

There will be times when you need extra funds to do home improvements, purchase a car, or go on a vacation. A homeowner who does not want to use his credit card or tap into his savings can use the equity of his home. With equity loans, you tap into the value of the home and place the home as collateral for the loan. Equity is the value that you have in your home computed by market value minus what you owe on the home.

In my opinion this is absolutely not a good idea. Never take out a home equity loan to purchase a car, take a vacation or do home improvements. Try saving the money and paying for it in cash. If you keep increasing your debt load you'll never be financially secure.

According to me you should not take loan for home warranty for car. I advice you to wait and save some money then buy a car. Buy car with home is not a good deal.

home equity loans are good but having higher rate of interest compare to student loans. So it's not advisable to use them to payoff student loans.

The only setback with home equity loans is that the loan will hold your property as collateral. Home equity loans are great financial tools for your home improvements, payments of debts, your child's education expenses, emergency expenses and medical expenses.
If you are considering getting a home equity loan, shop around first for the ideal home equity lending company. Some home equity lending companies have lots of cost and fees on their home equity loan. On the other hand, there are some home equity lending companies that offer a no fee home equity loan.

Home equity loans are just what the name means: Loans from home using your home as collateral. Understand your home equity is based on the difference between estimated value and you have at home.
