Payment-first math

We focus on principal & interest with taxes/insurance context — not just headline APR.

Points, origination, and lender credits can swing five figures. We surface the tradeoffs.

Equity access

HELOCs and cash-out refis are scored separately so “get cash from your home” stays honest.
