Question:
John and Jane have no mortgage on a house appraised for $380,000.
John and Jane have a heloc for $50,000 which will soon be due.
Can that heloc be converted to a mortgage?
Or can a mortgage now be taken out to pay off the heloc?
Is such a relatively low amount too small for a mortgage?
(It is actually paid down to $36,000.)
More info:
John and Jane do not have any other debt.
They own outright other assets (land).
They both have long-term stable employment; John earns much more than Jane.
They have a good credit history.
They do have three children in college.
Tuition is partly being paid with academic scholarships, but remaining tuition and college living expenses are being paid by John and Jane.
They also help with care for elderly parents.
Hence, constant cash outflow!
What do you think?
Thanks.
