Home Equity Loan Rates Today — Live Averages & What Drives Your Home Equity Loan Quote
Compare today's home equity loan rates with the current Freddie Mac PMMS national benchmark. See how credit score, LTV, DTI, alt-credit and reserves, and lock period change your quote, and get a scenario-specific rate from a Simply Approved Mortgages Loan Officer (NMLS# 2620881).
Home equity loan rates are fixed for the full term of a closed-end second mortgage that funds as one lump sum. They price above first-mortgage rates because the lien is subordinate, and your maximum amount depends on combined loan-to-value across both liens, typically capped between 80% and 90% of supported value. Binding figures appear on your disclosures.
- ✓A home equity loan is a fixed-rate, closed-end second mortgage funded as a single lump sum.
- ✓Most programs cap combined loan-to-value between 80% and 90%, including your existing first mortgage.
- ✓It leaves a below-market first mortgage untouched, which is the main reason homeowners choose it over a cash-out refinance.
- ✓Compare it against a home equity line: fixed sum and fixed payment versus revolving access with a variable rate.
- ✓Advertised home equity loan rates are indicative — your binding rate, APR, and payment appear on your Loan Estimate.
- ✓Freddie Mac PMMS is the weekly benchmark for 30-year and 15-year national averages, refreshed each Thursday.
What this means for you: If you need one defined sum and your first mortgage is priced below the market, a fixed second usually beats replacing the whole loan — have a Simply Approved Mortgages Loan Officer price the second, a line, and a cash-out refinance together.

How home equity loan rates are actually set
The Freddie Mac PMMS averages shown below are national weekly survey rates for a well-qualified borrower — they are not a personal quote. Your home equity loan rate is a function of your credit score, loan-to-value (LTV), debt-to-income (DTI), loan purpose, occupancy, property type, loan amount, and the day and time you lock. Per the CFPB TILA-RESPA Integrated Disclosure (TRID) rules, the only binding rate figures are the ones printed on your Loan Estimate.
What drives home equity loan pricing specifically
- A home equity loan is a closed-end second mortgage: one lump sum, a fixed rate, and a fixed payment over a set term.
- Second-lien position means pricing sits above comparable first-mortgage pricing.
- Combined loan-to-value across the first mortgage and the new second is the gating number — typically 80% to 90%.
- Credit score, occupancy, loan size, and documented income all move the fixed rate you are offered.
- Second-home and investment-property second liens are offered by fewer investors, at lower combined loan-to-value.
Home Equity Loan qualification snapshot (2026)
| Minimum FICO | 680 typical; some programs 660, best pricing at 740+ |
| Max LTV | Typically 80%–90% combined loan-to-value including your existing first mortgage |
| Mortgage insurance / fee | No mortgage insurance on a closed-end second mortgage. The rate is fixed for the full term rather than indexed to Prime. |
| Max DTI | 45% standard (up to 50% via AUS) |
Rate vs. APR on a home equity loan
The interest rate is the cost of borrowing principal. The APR annualizes rate plus most upfront finance charges — origination, discount points. APR is disclosed on the Loan Estimate and Closing Disclosure exactly because it makes two competing home equity loan offers comparable.

How to shop home equity loan rates the right way
- Same day, same time. Rates move intraday — quotes from different days aren't comparable.
- Same lock period. A 15-day quote will look better than a 45-day quote from another lender.
- Compare Loan Estimates, not verbal quotes. The LE is the standardized, regulated document.
- Look at Section A + total closing costs — not just the rate.
- Check APR. It's the single-number comparison across offers.
Pro tips for home equity loan borrowers
- Ask what valuation method the program accepts — an automated valuation can save time and cost on smaller amounts.
- Confirm prepayment terms and any early-closure fee before you sign.
- If the money will be spent in stages rather than at once, price a line of credit against the fixed second.
What Simply Approved Mortgages does differently
On eligible residential transactions we generally use a 1.5% lender-paid compensation structure — the lender pays our broker compensation under its lender-paid compensation plan, so you don't pay us a separate broker fee. It’s disclosed on your Loan Estimate. We shop your home equity loan file across wholesale investors so your rate reflects real market pricing for your scenario, not retail branch overhead.

Home Equity Loan rates by state
Same live Freddie Mac PMMS benchmark plus each state's taxes, fees, and county loan limits that shape your APR.
Rate shopping a home equity loan is a same-day, apples-to-apples exercise. Ask every lender for a Loan Estimate on the same lock period, then compare rate, APR, and total closing costs together. Reviewed by Simply Approved Mortgages · NMLS# 2620881 · Equal Housing Opportunity.
Compare loan officer compensation on your mortgage quote
Loan officer compensation is part of the cost of a mortgage. On eligible residential loans, Simply Approved Mortgages generally uses 1.5% lender-paid compensation. Enter the compensation shown on another lender's Loan Estimate to see the difference in dollars.
Compensation difference on this illustration: $3,750.
How lower compensation can help you
When less compensation is built into pricing, there can be room for a lower interest rate, which may lower your monthly payment.
Depending on the rate you choose, pricing can sometimes include a lender credit toward third-party closing costs, so you may bring less cash to closing.
A lower rate means a lower monthly payment, which can lower your debt-to-income ratio and may help you qualify for more home on the same income.
As a mortgage broker we compare pricing from wholesale lenders instead of offering a single bank’s retail pricing.
Tip: On page 2 of your Loan Estimate, look at Section A, "Origination Charges." If the lender pays the loan officer, that compensation usually does not appear there as its own line; it is built into the interest rate. That is why comparing the rate and any lender credits side by side matters.
Already have a Loan Estimate from another bank or broker? Share it with a Simply Approved Mortgages Loan Officer, who will compare the rate, fees and credits side by side with options we can arrange. No cost to request a review.
Illustration only — not a quote, lock, offer, or commitment to lend; binding figures appear on your Loan Estimate. Lender-paid compensation is paid by the lender, not directly by you, and is part of the loan's pricing, so the loan is not free of costs. A lower compensation figure does not by itself guarantee a lower rate or lower closing costs; individual results vary by credit, loan type, property and market conditions.

Assumptions, methodology, and limitations
Principal and interest use the standard amortization formula on the loan amount you enter. This page does not target a single state, so the property tax and insurance fields start at neutral placeholder assumptions rather than published averages — replace them with figures for your own address, or open the matching state page for sourced seeds. Closing costs apply your state's transfer / documentary-stamp practice (0.00% of price used as the buyer-side seed) plus typical title, recording, appraisal, credit and prepaid escrow lines. Refinance break-even divides your entered costs by the monthly payment difference. Early payoff runs a month-by-month amortization with your extra principal.

Using your equity
Cash-out, HELOC, or second mortgage — how to choose
There are three common ways to convert equity into usable funds, and the right one usually comes down to one question: is the rate on your existing first mortgage worth protecting? Everything below is structural education — not a quote, lock, offer, or commitment to lend.
Cash-out refinance
Replaces your existing first mortgage with a larger one and returns the difference, less costs, as cash at closing.
Often fits: Borrowers whose current first-mortgage rate is not meaningfully better than what is available today, who want one payment, and who need a larger lump sum.
Watch for: You are re-setting the whole balance at the new rate and usually a new 30-year clock. Closing costs apply to the entire loan amount, and owner-occupied cash-out has its own loan-to-value ceilings by program.
HELOC (home equity line of credit)
A revolving second lien you draw from as needed during a draw period, then repay. The first mortgage stays exactly as it is.
Often fits: Borrowers holding a low first-mortgage rate, staged expenses such as a renovation, or anyone who wants access to funds without drawing all of it.
Watch for: Most HELOCs carry a variable rate, so the payment can move; some have an interest-only draw period followed by a materially higher fully-amortizing payment, plus annual or early-closure fees.
Fixed second mortgage / home equity loan
A one-time lump sum as a fixed-rate second lien behind your existing first mortgage.
Often fits: A known, one-time amount when you want payment certainty and do not want to touch a favorable first mortgage.
Watch for: Second-lien pricing is generally higher than first-lien pricing, and you now carry two mortgage payments with two separate payoff dates.
Example: consolidating higher-cost debt
A homeowner carrying revolving balances and an auto loan may be able to pay those off with a cash-out refinance or a second lien so there is one secured payment instead of several unsecured ones. The monthly outflow can fall because a mortgage is amortized over a much longer term than a card or an auto note. That longer term is also the catch: spreading the same balance over 30 years can increase the total interest paid over the life of the debt even when the monthly figure improves.
The bigger tradeoff is legal, not arithmetic. Credit card and medical balances are unsecured; a mortgage is secured by your home. Consolidating converts unsecured debt into debt your home stands behind. This is not debt settlement, debt relief, or credit repair, and we make no representation about what it will do to your credit scores.
Example: using equity to buy an investment property
Equity pulled from a primary residence is a common source of down payment and reserves on a rental purchase, because it avoids liquidating investments. Underwriting then looks at both properties: the new payment on your primary counts in your debt-to-income ratio, and rental income is generally only credited with documentation the program accepts, often at less than the full rent.
Vacancy, maintenance, insurance on a non-owner-occupied property, and the risk that the rental underperforms all sit on the primary home once its equity is encumbered. Investment property financing also prices and qualifies differently than owner-occupied financing, and business-purpose products are governed by separate rules and availability.
Tapping home equity — the honest tradeoffs
Pros — Tapping home equity
- +Consolidates several payments into one secured payment with a single due date.
- +Mortgage amortization is far longer than card or auto terms, which can lower total monthly outflow.
- +A HELOC or fixed second leaves a favorable existing first-mortgage rate untouched.
- +Funds can be used for renovation, reserves, education, or a down payment on another property.
- +Mortgage interest may be deductible in some circumstances — confirm with your tax advisor, not with us.
Cons / watch-outs — Tapping home equity
- −Your home secures the balance, so unsecured debt becomes debt the property stands behind.
- −Re-amortizing over a longer term can increase total interest paid even when the payment falls.
- −Cash-out refinancing resets the entire first mortgage, including any rate you currently hold.
- −HELOC rates are usually variable and the payment can rise after the draw period ends.
- −Closing costs, appraisal requirements, and loan-to-value ceilings apply, and paid-off revolving accounts can be used again.
