The Loan Options Worth Considering to Fund a Home Renovation?

March 06, 2025 • Tim Dyer

Today we’re going to talk about a recent conversation Tim had with a client who was looking to borrow some money for a home renovation project. There were a couple of options available to them, some of them pretty simple and some a little bit more in-depth.

Tim was surprised to learn that some of these things weren't as well-known as he thought they were so we wanted to share some of that information on the show to maybe get you thinking about some options that are available to you.

Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:

🏠 Margin Loans for Renovation

· Borrow against your investment portfolio without liquidating assets

· Avoid taxes and penalties that come with selling investments

💳 Securities-Backed Loans

· Lower interest rates compared to margin loans

· Use funds for non-investment purposes with less paperwork

💸 Traditional Financing Options

· Personal loans, HELOCs, and cash-out refinancing

· Understand the pros and cons of each choice and their impact on your financial future

🔍 Strategic Financial Planning

· How to assess your goals and plan for repayment

· Make informed decisions based on your financial situation

We hope this episode provides essential tips on leveraging financing options to fund your renovation projects but reach out if you want to discuss what’s best for you.
