If you own a home and have any big expenses coming up, a home equity line of credit (HELOC) might be perfect for you. You can set up a HELOC based on your equity in your home—up to 90% of your home’s value. Here’s what to keep in mind before you apply:

 You’ll get a 6.99 APR for the first 12 months. After that, the APR can range from 7.50% to 18%

  If you don’t use your entire line of credit, it’s there in case you need it during the next 10 years.

 There are no closing costs.?​​​​​

 It’s a line of credit, not a loan, which means you’ll only pay back what you use.​​​

 You can borrow up to 90% of the appraised value of your home, less any outstanding mortgage liens.

 The minimum amount is $20,000.

Here’s how to get and use a HELOC in just a few easy steps.

  • 1. Plan

    Think about what you might want to use that HELOC for. Check your home ‘to-do’ list and see what it might cover.

  • 2. Apply

    When you're ready to apply, have all the relevant information available. There’s no closing fee!

  • 3. Connect

    One of our representatives will call you to discuss your application and next steps. Again, we want to be careful as far as your home equity is concerned.

  • 4. Transfer

    Once you’ve been approved, you’ll be able to access your funds through digital banking. A HELOC is good for 10 years, so you’ll be able to cover whatever pops up in the future.

  • 5. Make payments

    You’ll be able to make payments through digital banking too. And remember—you only need to make payments on what you’ve spent, not the entire amount of the line of credit.

Tap into your home’s equity.
