Question 1

What makes equity appreciation loans different from HELoans?

Accepted Answer

HELoans give you a fixed lump sum. Equity appreciation loans tie your terms to projected home value growth, often in exchange for a share of future gains.

Question 2

Do I need to sell my home to repay the lender's share?

Accepted Answer

Not always. Some products allow buyouts before sale. Read the repayment terms closely — they vary significantly by lender.

Question 3

Is Fillmore a strong market for equity-based borrowing?

Accepted Answer

Ventura County's steady appreciation supports it. Fillmore's smaller inventory means appraisals require extra care to get right.

Question 4

What credit score do I need for these loans?

Accepted Answer

Most lenders want 680 or above. Some portfolio lenders have flexibility, but better scores mean better terms. Rates vary by borrower profile and market conditions.

Question 5

Can I use this loan to buy a home or only to tap existing equity?

Accepted Answer

Most equity appreciation products are for existing homeowners. They're designed to access built-up equity, not to finance a purchase.

Question 6

How does SRK CAPITAL help with these products in Fillmore?

Accepted Answer
