FAQs
JG Wentworth’s Home Equity Cashout enables you to access the equity you’ve accumulated in your home without taking on new debt.
The concept is simple: JG Wentworth gives you a lump sum of cash today in exchange for a percentage of your home’s future value later.
If you’re looking for a way to access your home’s equity, but don’t have perfect credit, want to avoid the stress of more monthly payments, and don’t want to sell your home—a Home Equity Cashout may be right for you.
- Your home needs to be in an approved market area, and it should be worth over
- You need to have sufficient percentage of the equity in your home, usually at least 30%.
- You should have a minimum credit score of 500.
- You don’t have any recent bankruptcies or foreclosures.
- Your home is of a qualified property type, i.e. not commercial properties, manufactured homes, modular homes, mobile homes, properties with 5 or more acres, properties with an LLC ownership, or co-ops.
After receiving your funds, you have up to 10 years to pay off the Cashout. This can happen in two ways:
- If you sell your home, we will receive our portion of the proceeds.
- You can pay off the Cashout with other funds—for example, by obtaining a home equity loan, refinancing your mortgage, or using personal savings.
Many homeowners target paying off their Cashout within 3-4 years to benefit from this lower Payoff percentage, providing an effective discount. By using Cashout funds to pay down debt and bills, clients can often improve their credit profile and become eligible for a home equity loan in just a few years—and then can use those funds to pay off the Cashout early.
