A HELOC is a home equity loan that can be taken out by a borrower when they require cash quickly. They can borrow as many as they need and only pay interest when they use it. HELOCs are more affordable than personal loan because they only charge interest on what they use. And because the borrower doesn't need to pay the entire amount up front, they can borrow much less than they would if they took out a personal loan.
