Key things to consider before you apply for a home equity loan
What is a home equity loan?
A home equity loan (also referred to as a HELOAN) is an installment loan that’s secured by the paid value of your home. With a home equity loan, homeowners can borrow up to a percentage of their home’s market value, minus the amount currently owed on their mortgage. Home equity loans generally have better interest rates due to your home being used as collateral. Funds are offered as a single lump sum payment with a fixed interest rate and repayment terms up to 20 years.How much equity is in my home?
Before you apply for a home equity loan, you should get an idea of the amount of equity available in your home. Review your most recent mortgage statement and locate the remaining balance. Subtract the amount owed from your house's market value and the result will give you an estimate of your equity. Try using our home equity calculator to help calculate this number.What are the advantages of a credit union home equity loan?
A credit union home equity loans can be offered at lower interest rates and greater flexibility in payment terms. This is because credit unions are non-profit and don’t have shareholders in contrast to most larger financial institutions. At Clearview, we build relationships with our members.
