What should I compare?

Look at the amount you plan to borrow, the interest rate, and the draw and repayment periods. A HELOC usually has a variable rate, so test more than one rate instead of relying on a single payment estimate.

Borrowing

Start with the amount you expect to use, rather than the full credit limit.

Repayment

Compare payments during the draw period and after that period ends.

Your budget

Consider how a higher payment would fit alongside your other commitments.
