How home equity is calculated
Home equity is calculated by subtracting the amount of money still owed on a property from the property’s fair market value.
Here’s an example of how it could look: if your property is valued at $100,000 and your owe $40,000 on your mortgage, your current equity would be $60,000.
| $100,000 (estimated home value) | |
| - | $40,000 (mortgage balance still owed) |
| = | $60,000 (current equity) |

How is my home equity calculated?
Home equity is calculated by subtracting the amount of money you still owe on your mortgage from the total value of your home.
When you apply for a HELOC or HELoan, your lender will generate its own appraisal of your property. That will provide the most accurate calculation of your current home equity value.
Keep in mind your APR for a HELoan will be fixed, while your APR for a HELOC can change over time.
