Can an equity loan be transferred from one property to another?
Answered By Editor
No, when you get a new home loan, generally,
you need to re-apply for a new home equity
loan. This is the same for when you refinance
your home loan. Equity lines, loans and
mortgages are tied to specific properties. A
property is qualified based on its appraisal
and amount of equity an owner has in the
property. The loans (lines) are generally
recorded as liens on the property. In order
to move your ability to borrow from one
property to another, you would have to pay
off the first loan and then open the new one.
You may be able to work with a bank to make
this happen simultaneously, but the technical
aspect is that the line doesn't move. A new
loan must be taken out.
