Whether you need to update your kitchen or fix a leaky roof, home improvement sometimes is not cheap. That’s where a HELOC can help

What is a Home Equity Line of Credit?

  • A HELOC allows you to borrow against the equity that you’ve built up in your home.
  • It gives you flexibility for both borrowing and repaying the loan.

How does HELOC work?

  • A HELOC works like a credit card that you can borrow money when you need it.
  • The limit is set by how much equity you have in your home minus any outstanding loans.
  • A HELOC can offer more flexibility with withdrawals and making payments.

How much can I borrow?

  • The amount you can borrow is determined by the market value of your home and the amount you owe on your mortgage.

Making improvements to your home

  • If you want to borrow money to make improvements to your home such as remodeling or a new roof, it makes sense to get a home equity loan.
  • Putting more money into your home makes sense for your peace of mind and for investing in your home for possible re-sell.

Back-up emergency fund

  • Since HELOCs are like credit cards, the money is there when you need it most.
