Unlock Your Home's Equity

A Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) is the choice for someone who likes having the flexibility to draw funds when they need it and can use it for most any purpose.

• Designed for use in your primary residence.
• An open-ended line of credit you can manage through Online Banking.
• Monthly payment changes based on the amount you owe.
• The interest you pay may be tax deductible - consult your tax adviser for more information.

*Home Equity Lines of Credit application must be received either online or at a branch between April 12th and May 14th 2021 to qualify for no closing cost offer. Additional fees and charges not considered closing costs may still apply. Offer is open to new HELOC loans to the credit union and primary residence only.

Unlike a HELOC, which a variable rate line of credit, a fixed rate home equity loan is a closed end loan with a fixed interest rate. It's an especially good option if you're going to make a large one-time investment, such as repairing or remodeling your home, or buying a second home.

• The interest rate and monthly payment remain the same over the life of the loan.
• The interest you pay may be tax deductible (consult your tax adviser for more information). 

Do home equity loans require a down payment? Home equity loans don't require a down payment, because you are using the equity in your home as the loan amount. We do like to keep the loan-to-value ration under 90% when possible.

How long does the loan application process take?  It varies depending upon your specific situation. Typically, if no appraisal is needed, it will take about two weeks. If an appraisal is needed, then the process will take longer, possibly up to four weeks. Our lenders will keep you up to date on the progress of your appraisal.

Where does the home equity loan close? The home equity loan closes in our branch offices.
