My 65 year old aunt has a $30 000 mortgage that is up for renewal. She also has a $8000 outstanding balance on the line of credit. Is it to her
advantage to transfer the mortgage to the existing home equity, or
is the advantage only to the bank?

thanks
Marlene

Marlene, by renewal do you mean that the rates are going to adjust on the mortgage or did you mean refinance?

Hi Marlene,

The interest rate on a HELOC is usually high. So, I think, it will be of no use if your aunt transfers her first mortgage to the existing HELOC as in that case, she may have to make higher monthly payments.
