A Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) is a revolving line secured by your home. You can draw funds during the draw period (up to 30 years) and then repay the outstanding balance over a repayment period (typically 10–20 years). You only pay interest on what you actually draw.

Frequently Asked Questions(FAQ)
What is a HELOC and how does it work?
How is a HELOC different from a Home Equity Loan?
A HELOC is revolving with a variable APR; you can borrow, repay, and re-borrow during the draw period. A Home Equity Loan is a fixed, lump-sum installment loan with a fixed rate and fixed monthly payment.
How much can I borrow?
Your limit is based on your home’s value, your current mortgage balance, credit profile, income, and program rules. We typically allow up to 90% combined loan-to-value (CLTV), subject to underwriting and state limits.
What rate will I get? Are HELOC rates fixed or variable?
HELOC APRs are variable and usually tied to an index (e.g., Prime) plus a margin. Our representative range starts at 5.00% and up, and your final APR depends on credit, CLTV, state, property type, and discounts (e.g., autopay).

Representative APR

• Draw period (interest-only): ≈ $333/mo
• Repayment (10 years, fully amortized): ≈ $607/mo
Examples are estimates for education only; actual payments vary with rate changes, draw amount, and your approved terms. Not a commitment to lend.
Fees
• Fees vary by program and state; they may include annual fee, origination/underwriting, appraisal, recording/title, and early-closure fees.
• An early-closure fee may apply if the line is closed shortly after opening (details provided in your disclosures).
• A complete, state-specific fee schedule is provided with your loan disclosures.
Eligibility
• Maximum CLTV up to 90% (varies by state and profile)
• Minimum credit score typically 620+
• Eligible properties: primary residence, second home, investment (program-dependent)
• Available in: All U.S. states except New York and Hawaii
What happens if you miss payments?
A HELOC is secured by your home. Late or missed payments may result in fees, increased interest, negative credit reporting, and in severe cases foreclosure. Borrow responsibly.

How to get the payment examples:
• Interest-only during draw: Monthly payment ≈ (APR ÷ 12) × balance (e.g., 8.00% → 0.08/12 × 50,000 ≈ $333).
• Fully amortized after draw: Use the standard loan formula with APR/12 as the monthly rate and the chosen repayment term (e.g., 120 months for 10 years) to calculate the monthly payment (≈ $607 at 8.00% APR for $50,000 over 10 years).
