Home Equity Loan or Line of Credit
Even if you don’t own it outright, your home may provide another source of funds for education financing through a home equity loan or line of credit. The difference between a loan and a line of credit is that loan proceeds are received in one lump sum. Interest rates are competitive and the interest is tax deductible.  Such loans may be a good choice, particularly if property in your area is expected to appreciate in value.
