A Home Equity Line of Credit allows you to use the equity built up in your home to finance projects, vacations or any other purchase. This flexible, open-ended line of credit is designed to give you control. The line of credit is secured with a mortgage on your home. In most cases the interest is tax deductible*.
The Home Equity Line of Credit can be paid down and then readjusted up to the maximum any time during the first 10-year period. The Home Equity Line of Credit provides you with checks you may write yourself. You receive a monthly statement showing the current interest rate, your payment amount, finance charge for the current month and any activity for the current statement period. Once approved for a credit-limit – you use the funds simply by writing a check – and you only pay interest on the actual amount used.
