Common Questions We Get About HELOCs
-
Think of a Home Equity Line of Credit like a credit card, but with a much better interest rate because it is backed by the value you already own in your home. You get approved for a set amount, and then you only borrow exactly what you need, right when you need it.
-
The amount depends on how much equity you have in your home, alongside your income and credit history. We look at the big picture to find a limit that makes sense for your budget.
-
A HELOC works in two phases. The "draw period" is the first phase where you can access your funds as needed. During this time, you usually just make small, interest-only payments. Once the draw period ends, you enter the repayment phase, where you pay back the principal and the interest.
-
A standard home equity loan hands you a single lump sum of cash all at once. A HELOC gives you a flexible line of credit you can pull from over time, meaning you only pay interest on the money you actually use.
-
You need to owe less on your mortgage than your home is currently worth. We will also check your credit history and income to make sure the loan is a safe, smart fit for you.
