How much equity can I borrow from my home?

Mortgage Guide

Few, if any, lenders these days will allow you to borrow against the full amount of your home equity, although that was common during the pre-crash days. As a rule of thumb, lenders will generally allow you to borrow up to 75-90 percent of your available equity, depending on the lender and your credit and income.
