ParticipantIf I were running the banks involved, I’d be slashing HELOC availability too. And probably a hell of a lot more draconianly (ok, I made that word up) than they have so far.
Last time I checked, the “E” in HELOC stood for “equity.” Thus it stands to reason that if the “E” is declining then the “LOC” should decline in many instances as well.
But that’s just me.

ParticipantI have freinds that took money out, and since they didn’t sell last year when I told them to, now they are stuck with a first mortage, and Heloc, and a home that is valued less than what they owe. Now they will be unable to take advantage of the crash, and possibly move up. They will be “Stuck” to that home for many years.
My freind’s reason for not selling when I put my home on the Market early last year, was the homes will appreciate to 500k within a few years. Which was the reason the Heloc seemed like a good idea.

If the HELOCs are securitized, do the banks still have a self-interest in cutting the HELOC? Are the HELOCs being cut mostly on the banks’ balance sheets?
