Homeowners hold an average of $274K⁴ in home equity, making now an ideal time to consider a HELOC. You can retain your low-interest mortgage rate while leveraging your home equity.

Homeowners can borrow up to $150K for home improvement, debt consolidation, or other expenses, which is typically a higher borrowing limit than personal loans.

Every draw is fixed rate, so your monthly payment never changes unless you make another draw on the line of credit.²

Unlike personal loans, HELOCs generally offer lower interest rates because they leverage the equity you've built in your home as collateral.

A home equity line of credit (HELOC) allows homeowners to borrow against the equity in their home. It provides a revolving line of credit that can be used for various purposes, similar to a credit card.

The main difference between a HELOC and a home equity loan is how you access the funds. With a HELOC, you can borrow from a revolving line of credit as needed, while a home equity loan provides a lump sum upfront.

You can borrow up to $150,000. Note that certain states have specific minimum loan amounts. The exact amount you may borrow depends on what you qualify for based on your application information.

It will not. When you check your rate, we make a soft credit inquiry on your report, which doesn't impact your credit score. If you accept your rate and proceed with your application, we will make a hard credit inquiry to verify your information. This action will be recorded as a hard inquiry on your report and it may impact your credit score.

Checking your rate takes as little as 10 minutes. Once you accept your rate, we have a seamless verification process. Once approved, it'll be an additional 3 business days in accordance with federal law to receive your funds.

1. When you check your rate, we check your credit report. This initial (soft) inquiry will not affect your credit score.

If you take out a loan, repayment information will be reported to the credit bureaus.

2. A Home Equity Line of Credit has a variable rate. The APR may change, but the APR that will apply to each draw will be fixed on the date the draw is made. Your APR will be the Prime Rate at the time of draw plus a margin fixed for the life of the HELOC.

3. Terms shown here are subject to change without notice. Origination fee to open an account is between 1.00% and 4.99% of the approved credit limit.

Your APR will never be less than 3.99% or greater than 18.000%. Property insurance is required. Ask us for additional details.
