Home Equity Loan and Line of Credit
Leveraging the equity in your home, either through a loan or a line of credit, can be an effective way to access funds. A Home Equity Loan provides a single, lump sum paid off over a set amount of time, at a fixed rate, via monthly payments.
By contrast, a Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) allows you to borrow up to a certain amount for a period of time determined by your lender. During that time, you can withdraw funds as you need to. You pay back the amounts you borrowed—at a variable rate that fluctuates over the life of the loan—and those funds become available again should you want to use them.
Online or in-person, applying is easy. To apply online, select a loan type below, click Apply Online, and get started by creating an account. To apply in-person, please visit your local branch.
Please note: If you are applying for a Home Equity Loan online, we require the use of e-consent and e-disclosures only. If you prefer to receive hard copy disclosures, please contact your local branch to apply in person or over the phone.
