How much will a Home Equity Loan cost?

I am considering using a Home Equity Loan as down payment for the purchase of a second property. I have two questions. Is it true that the interest will be tax deductable if I take out no more than 100k? Secondly, how much typically will a Home Equity Loan cost me in fees?

Interest on home loans is generally tax deductible. This includes equity lines.

The fees range from nothing to about $1-1500 tops. This is going to depend on the rate. Obviously the ones that have no closing costs typically have a higher rate. Typically for a smaller loan amount you want to go with a no closing cost option and for the bigger ones you'd pay the fees and get a lower rate.

Ask your tax advisor/cpa about the tax consequences. If you are under 100% of your homes' value, you should be able to write it off. Most equity loans have no closing costs, however, check what your early termination fee will be... The lender is fronting a lot of costs for you and they will lose money if you close out your loan early. If you don't want an early termination fee, you will pay closing costs on the line, probably between 1 to 2 thousand. more info on lines of credit, http://www.choicefinance.net/home-equity-loan.htm
