Tap Your Home’s Equity

If credit card payments are eating up your disposable income each month, or if you need cash to remodel your kitchen, buy a new car, take a vacation, pay off debt or anything else, a home equity loan or home equity line of credit (HELOC) might be your best bet.

These loans let you borrow money using the equity in your home as collateral.
Unlike almost any other consumer loan type, the interest on a home equity loan or HELOC of $100,000 or less is likely to be tax-deductible ($50,000 if married filing separately). Consult your tax advisor to see if your interest is eligible for a tax deduction.

Home Equity Loan With a home equity loan, you borrow a lump sum of money repayable over a fixed term, usually five to 15 years, giving you the security of a locked-in rate and a consistent monthly payment. Check rates and terms for your area.* » Apply Now

Home Equity Line of Credit A HELOC is much like a credit card or any other type of open-ended credit. You can borrow money as needed, up to the credit limit your lender assigns, access your loan using our HELOC Gold MasterCard, or by making a transfer into your checking account. A HELOC is a variable-rate loan, so your monthly payments will change based on your outstanding balance and fluctuations in the rate. HELOCs are not available to Texas homeowners. You may qualify for a Home Equity Line of Credit for as low as 4.00% Variable APR/WAC**. No closing costs unless an appraisal is needed. Start Renovating Today!
