Will moving credit from my credit cards to my Home Equity improve my credit score?

xblaine asked:


I have 40,000 in Credit Card debt. I own my house outright. If I get a Home Equity Loan and move this credit from my cards to the HELOC will it improve my credit score or will it basically stay the same?

      Well it might improve your score. Your debt to available credit ratio would drop.

      But moving credit card debt to your house is a bad idea. People who do this usually end up with those credit cards charged full again.

      You should re-think your spending habits. Only charge on those credti cards what you can afford to pay in full every month.

      The same debt but home equity line would help you lower interest rate both of which could help you pay more towards your debt and that would help your credit score.
      The same debt and that would help your credit score.
      The same debt but home equity line would help your debt and pay it may not raise it may not raise it off sooner and pay it off sooner and that would help you lower monthly payments and pay more.

      The balance counts for 30 of your score so if you owe versus the new account will count towards 10 of your score however the new account will count towards 10 of your score however the balance it might be better to stick with your credit score however the balance counts for 30 of your score however the balance counts.
