Equity

Definition

The difference between the market value of your home and the amount you owe to the lender.

Equity builds in two ways:

  1. Paying down principal: Every month, a portion of your payment reduces what you owe.
  2. Appreciation: If home values in your area rise, your equity increases automatically.
