      Equity Gain Growing in Nearly Every State

      Rising home prices have been in the news a lot lately, and much of the focus is on whether they’re accelerating too quickly and how sustainable the growth in prices really is. One of the often-overlooked benefits of rising prices, however, is the impact they have on a homeowner’s equity position.

      Home equity is defined as the difference between a home’s fair market value and the outstanding balance of all liens on the property. While homeowners pay down their mortgages, the amount of equity they have in their homes climbs each time the value increases.

      Today, the number of homeowners that currently have significant equity in their homes is growing. According to the Census Bureau, 38% of all homes in the country are mortgage-free.  In a home equity study, ATTOM Data Solutions revealed that of the 54.5 million homes with a mortgage, 26.7% of them have at least 50% equity. That number has been increasing over the last eight years.

      CoreLogic also notes:

      “…the average homeowner gained approximately $5,300 in equity during the past year.”

      The map below shows a breakdown of the increased equity gain across the country, painting a clear picture that home equity is growing in nearly every state.

      Bottom Line

      This may be the year to take advantage of your home equity by applying it forward, either as you downsize or as you move up to a new home.
