Home Equity Loans and Lines of Credit (HELOC)

Use the equity in your home to finance significant expenses such as home improvements, property purchases, medical expenses, a second car, RV, college education, or a dream vacation. The interest you pay may be tax deductible.1

  • Home Equity Loans: Get a fixed-term, fixed-rate loan with regular repayment periods (usually monthly payments).2
  • Home Equity Lines of Credit (HELOC): Once your Line of Credit amount is determined, you can use your allotted credit amount however and whenever you choose. Access your funds by writing a special HELOC check or transferring HELOC money into your Checking or other Deposit account. Similar to a credit card, you can pay interest only for a month or two or pay down your outstanding loan balance at any time without prepayment penalty.2

If you prefer a Home Equity Line of Credit, please review this helpful booklet before completing your HELOC Application: What You Should Know About Home Equity Lines of Credit. Also, carefully review the following disclosure and print a copy for your records: HELOC Disclosure – Interest Only Special.
