I am interested in doing some updates to my home totaling about $50K (windows, bath, kitchen and small interior remodel). I haven’t really priced things out so this might be an inflated estimate, but I’m sure it’s in the range.

Given that I don’t have anything near that in the bank, I wondered about a home equity loan. I’ve owned my home for nearly five years and in that time the value has increased quite a bit. i love my neighborhood and the value is only on the rise.
Anyone know when the time is ripe to take a home equity loan ? How much equity should you have in your house? And will the new loan wrap up into your mortgage or be a completely separate payment?
