How much do you know about home equity? We’ll break down the key factors, so you can make the most of this resource whenever you need it.

The Differences Between Home Equity Products

Find out the differences between Home Equity Loans and Lines of Credit, and discover what they’re commonly used for.

FAQs: You asked. We answered.

You generally need to have at least an 80% Loan-to-Value ratio after the loan in order to be considered. That means you must have made enough payments on your home to own at least 20% of it. If you have 20% equity, you’re more likely to be considered for a Home Equity Loan or Line of Credit. For more detailed information, please call our team at 800.845.5025.

If you’re unsure which product is right for you, our team can provide a personalized recommendation based on your financial situation. Call 800.845.5025 to get started.

Your payment will be 1.5% of the amount borrowed. If you have a credit limit of $20,000, but only draw out $5,000, you would pay 1.5% on the $5,000 balance. If you have an interest-only HELOC, the monthly payment will be the interest accrued during the month.

You can get a Home Equity Loan or HELOC for properties throughout the United States, with the exception of properties in Hawaii, Alaska, Maryland, and Texas.

We do not offer Home Equity Loans or HELOCs for investment properties; however, you can get a Home Equity Loan or HELOC for a second home if the property meets our eligibility standards. Eligible property types include primary residences and second homes (located at least 50 miles from the primary residence). Properties must be one of the following: single-family homes, 2-4-unit condominiums, owner-occupied duplexes, or townhouses.

Yes, debt protection is available for all Home Equity Loans and Lines of Credit. See more info about our coverages or start a claim now.
