Home Equity Loan vs. Line of Credit
Home Equity Loan
You can borrow up to 80% of your home’s appraised value minus any first mortgage balance for a maximum loan amount of $100,000. If you’ll need funding in a lump sum, choose one of our fixed-rate, fixed-term Home Equity Loans with terms ranging from 24 months to 180 months. You’ll lock in your rate and have equal monthly payments for the life of your loan.
Home Equity Line of Credit
A Home Equity Line of Credit may be more suitable if you don’t need all your funding up front, but you want to be able to access it quickly when you need it. This credit line has a variable rate that adjusts quarterly, and your monthly minimum payment will depend on the line of credit balance. Credit advances can be taken for a 10-year period along with another 10-year repayment term.
