You can use your home equity loan for almost anything. Common uses include debt consolidation (paying off high-interest credit card debt), home improvements, purchasing or refinancing a home, purchasing land, paying for education expenses, college tuition, and buying luxury items.
The two major advantages of borrowing with a home equity loan are lower interest rates and potential tax savings. The interest rate you will pay on the average home equity loan is generally lower than the interest rate you will pay on the average credit card or any other type of non-secured debt. For home equity loans, you can generally deduct the interest you pay. The interest you pay on credit cards and other types of personal loans is generally not tax-deductible. (Consult with a tax advisor regarding the deductibility of interest.)
