Real Estate Word of the Day: Equity

Equity is the portion of your home that you truly own. Simply put, it’s the difference between what your home is worth and what you still owe on your mortgage.

For example, if your home is worth $600,000 and you owe $400,000, you have $200,000 in equity.

Equity can grow over time as you pay down your mortgage and as your home's value increases. It's one of the biggest ways homeowners build wealth through real estate!

Curious how much equity you may have in your home? Send us a message—we'd be happy to help you find out!
