From Overwhelmed to Empowered:
How Homeowners Use Figure to Simplify Debt

A family of 5 tries to stay afloat amid job loss

After a sudden job loss and the birth of their third child, this Indiana family of five found themselves buried in over $25,000 of credit card debt just trying to keep up with everyday expenses. With the help of a $40,000 Figure HELOC, they finally consolidated their debt into a manageable payment—cutting their monthly bills nearly in half and regaining control over their finances. 

Mental health struggles lead to $40k in credit card debt

After battling depression, Nikki’s spending spiraled—what began as $5,000 in credit card debt ballooned to $40,000. With her credit maxed out and minimum payments barely making a dent, she turned to Figure. A $40,000 HELOC helped her pay off her debt in full, and paired with therapy and better spending habits, her finances—and confidence—are finally back on track.

A retiree lives above their means landing $44k in debt

When Kim (name changed for privacy) retired, the paychecks stopped—but the spending didn’t. Day-to-day and travel expenses piled up into $44,000 of credit card debt.

To take back control, Kim opened a Figure HELOC and used it to pay off the cards—replacing chaos with a clear, manageable plan.

HELOC qualifications


  • To qualify for a HELOC you need to have sufficient equity in your home.

    This means that the amount that you owe on your home must be less than its current value. A lender will typically allow you to borrow and use up to 85% of the current value of your house minus the amount you owe on it.

  • A lender will also look at other factors when determining approval.

    Such as credit score, credit history, employment history, monthly income, debt payments, and debt-to-income ratio. These same factors will be used to determine the amount of your credit line and your interest rate.

Figure’s application process is free, 100% online and it only takes a few minutes.

Use our HELOC calculator to see how much you could qualify to borrow

The amount you can borrow with a HELOC will vary based on certain factors such as the appraised value of your home and what percentage of that value the lender will allow you to borrow.

To determine how much you can borrow with a HELOC, you need to first calculate the maximum amount of equity that could be borrowed. Figure’s loan amounts range from a minimum of $15,000 to a maximum of $750,000.5: Navigates to numbered disclaimer
