Why you should consider using a personal loan to payoff high interest rate debt. The standard deduction is now $12,000 per person or $24,000 for a married couple filing jointly. As a result, there is likely no tax benefit to borrowing against your home, and a better option could be a personal loan to pay off high interest rate credit card debt. Make the same payment you are making now but refinance it to a low single digit rate and pay it off in 3 to 5 years, saving 15 years of payments.
