I'd find a good mortgage broker/firm and go from there...
Kudos to you for still having some equity in your home. I know that isn't the case for lots of folks out there. |

Pittsburgh was hit relatively lightly with the whole housing market crash. My dad actually purchased a house there about a year ago (my sister goes to Pitt) and it's already gone up I wanna say 10-15% in value.
Have you even started looking OP? I know that most major banks offer heloc's, not sure how their apr compares traditionally but may be a starting point. |

And ya, I've been using bankrate.com as a starting point...but that only has banks that submit their data, tons of other smaller/other banks out there that it doesn't encompass. |

Best bet is a Credit Union.
You can also try this: http://www.bankrate.com/home-equity.aspx And for a very rough value estimate: http://www.eppraisal.com/ |

LOL I go to visit often enough but don't know Pittsburgh well enough to know where the river is from there...or to not get lost every fucking time I get that highway that goes through the tunnel in the mountain and then immediately over the bridge...
That said, Blue Knob rules |
