Mortgage rate vs 12% loan
A $50,000 renovation on a personal loan at 10% costs you $5,000/year in interest. The same amount added to your mortgage at 4.5% costs just $2,250/year - saving you $2,750 annually.
Over a 5-year term, that's $13,750 in savings - money you can put toward finishing the basement or upgrading appliances.
If you're buying a home that needs work, consider a Purchase Plus Improvement program. Already own? An equity takeout or HELOC may be the best route. Use our calculators to compare.
