What does a Home Equity Line of Credit do?

A Home Equity Line of Credit, often referred to as a HELOC, uses the equity in your home as collateral to guarantee the loan. This reduces risk to the bank on this loan, allowing you to enjoy a lower interest rate compared to an unsecured line of credit.

Here’s what you can expect.

Access to a line of credit for ongoing use. You won’t have to apply for another loan each time you need money—just access your HELOC. As you repay your outstanding balance, you will receive back that amount of available credit, similar to a credit card. The minimum line of credit you can qualify for with this special is $7,500 and the maximum is $100,000. You will have access to these funds for 10 years. 

What is equity?

Equity is the difference between how much money you owe on your home and the amount your home is worth. The more you pay on your mortgage, the more equity you have in your home. Your equity can also increase if your home appraises for more that it previously did. Similarly, if your home appraises for less than it previously did, your equity decreases.

Items needed to apply for a HELOC:

• Available Equity in your home
• Current verification of income (if your HELOC amount is over $50,000)
