Yes, it is not uncommon. A home equity loan is a second mortgage, and the process is essentially the same as refinancing your primary mortgage.
Depending on your financial goals, you may want to consolidate your first and second mortgage into a single, low interest primary mortgage.
This can be beneficial since second mortgages (home equity loans, HELOCS, etc) always have higher rates than first mortgages.
However, if you are certain you want a new second mortgage, keep your credit clean, as second mortgage rates are heavily dependent on your credit score (even more so than first mortgages)
