A Home Equity Loan can be a dream come true or a living nightmare. It all depends on how you approach a home equity loan and for what reason you actually want the home equity in your hand instead of your home. If your intent is to reduce debt so that you have breathing room to pay more on other debts, a home equity loan MAY BE on the right track. However, if your objective is to have more breathing room so that you can add more debt, you are heading for a natural disaster. Basics of a Home Equity Loan - Good and Bad What is a home equity loan? A home equity loan is a second mortgage. It uses the collateral of your home to secure a loan. Good news - Because this is a secured loan, its interest is less than on many loans such as on a credit card. This is very attractive. Equally attractive is the fact that because it is a second mortgage, interest can offer a tax deduction. That's the good news. Bad news - But if a home equity loan is used to pay off unsecured debt such as a credit card, what you have done in essence is convert an unsecured debt into a secured debt with your home as the security. This is not a very sound plan. Not only that but just as when you default on your primary mortgage you could lose your home, so too you can lose your home by defaulting on your home equity loan. More bad news- Another draw back that has developed over the last few years is that often you can borrow more than your house is worth... up to 125% of the value of your home. This is called negative equity and means that if you sell the house because of a job transfer or any other reason, you must either get enough to pay off both loans or you will be paying off the home equity loan when you are trying to buy another home. Still more bad news - There is one other negative side to a home equity loan. You will have points and closing costs to get the loan just as you had when you got your first mortgage. Home Equity Warnings! Okay, so I did not scare you off with the above and you are still determined to get a home equity loan. What are the danger signs and issues to be watchful for? FTC warns: "The lender doesn't care if you can't keep up with the monthly payments. As soon as you don't, the lender will foreclose-taking your home and stripping you of the equity you have spent years building. If you take out a loan but don't have enough income to make the monthly payments, you are being set up. You probably will lose your home." Watch out for lowered payments because there is a balloon payment at the end. Balloon payments are large lump payments due as the last payment. Don't do it! Avoid home improvement cam which begin construction before any financing is settled. See Scams To Help You Lose Your Home . Avoid pre-payment penalties. If you want to pay off your loan ahead of time, you should not pay a fee to do so. A 10% prepayment fee is not uncommon... but is a lot of money. Avoid rate increases by avoiding missed or late payments. FTC Offers These Do's And Don t's: Don't agree to a home equity loan if you don't have enough income to make the monthly payments. Don's sign any document you haven't read or any document that has blank spaces to be filled in after you sign or let anyone pressure you into signing any document. Don't agree to a loan that includes credit insurance or extra products you don't want. Don's let the promise of extra cash or lower monthly payments get in the way of your good judgment about whether the cost you will pay for the loan is really worth it. Don't deed your property to anyone. First consult an attorney, a knowledgeable family member, or someone else you trust. DO ask specifically if credit insurance is required as a condition of the loan. If it isn't, and a charge is included in your loan and you don't want the insurance, ask that the charge be removed from the loan documents. If you want the added security of credit insurance, shop around for the best rates. DO keep careful records of what you've paid, including billing statements and canceled checks. Challenge any charge you think is inaccurate. Do check contractors' references when it is time to have work done in your home. Get more than one estimate.

Allegheny County Assessment ALLEGHENY COUNTY REAL ESTATE WEB SITE 12/29/2005 3:44:16 PM Help Home Legal Disclaimer The values contained herein have been provided by the Office of Property Assessments and are updated bi-weekly. All values represent the estimated market value of the property as of January 1, 2002, unless otherwise updated due to permits, appeals, corrections, flood loss or catastrophic loss. Annually, in July, the State Tax Equalization Board (STEB) releases a sales ratio study comparing the County assessed values to current sales prices. The most recent STEB ratio, for the year 2004, was 91.3%. That means for 2004, on average countywide, the assessed values were within 91.3% of the sales prices. When released, the STEB ratio for 2005 will be posted on this site. Both the 2005 and 2006 values are subject to ongoing maintenance throughout the course of the year. In accordance with County and State statutes, values may be adjusted in the following ways: The Office of Property Assessments can adjust values by way of the administrative change process for factual, mathematical or clerical errors. Values can also be adjusted due to a change in the physical nature of the property due to building permits for additions or demolitions. In addition, the Board of Property Assessment Appeals and Review and the Board of Viewers are distinct and separate entities from the Office of Property Assessments and have the authority to hear appeals and make decisions that can change assessed values. In these cases, the property owner and the taxing bodies are notified and the appeal decisions are regularly posted on the website. All property data has been provided by the Office of Property Assessments and does not include minor, detached structures such as garages, swimming pools and sheds. Sales prices are for the latest recorded sale and may not reflect invalid sales such as sheriff sales, love and affection sales or multiple parcel transactions. In the case of newly constructed buildings, the amount of the sale may reflect only the purchase of the vacant land. Therefore, sale to assessed value comparisons can be misleading. Local and County values may differ due to various abatement programs. To see information on the abatement programs for which you may qualify, please go to http://www.county.allegheny.pa.us/opa/abate.asp These applications are designed to be viewed using Internet Explorer 6.0.
