Homeowners now have $5.8 trillion in untapped equity, the highest volume ever recorded.

Only 1.17 percent of available equity was tapped in the 1st quarter of this year, the lowest amount in 4 years. Some homeowners may remember homes lost due to the housing crash and are skeptical of some markets overheating.
