Home equity loans and home improvement loans offer different options for financing a renovation project. Home equity loans involve converting part of a homeowner's stake into cash with the home as collateral, offering lower interest rates but posing a risk to the home if payments are missed. On the other hand, home improvement loans are unsecured personal loans with higher interest rates but quicker approval times and no risk to the home. Understanding the differences can help in selecting the right option based on needs, finances, and risk tolerance.
