The variable rate means your payment changes with market conditions. If rates drop, your cost falls; if they rise, you pay more. Plan for rate movement when budgeting.

A HELOC differs from a home equity loan in one key way: you draw as needed during the draw period. A fixed home equity loan gives you a lump sum upfront.
HELOC rates are often lower initially than fixed home equity loans, but actual pricing varies by lender and borrower profile. Fixed loans lock your rate and payment for the full term, trading flexibility for predictability.
