Debt Consolidation Options

A fixed-rate Home Equity Loan allows you to free up the equity in your home and turn it into cash — without affecting the great low rate you already have on your mortgage loan!

You get the entire loan amount up front to use for a specific purpose, and the rate is fixed, so you can rest assured it won't increase during your repayment period. With low monthly payments and terms up to 15 years, it’s a great way to finance large expenses.

• Great for debt consolidation, college tuition, vehicle purchase, substantial home improvements or other large purchases
• Get the entire loan amount up front—all at once—for a specific purpose.
• Low fixed rates and fixed monthly payments
• Minimum term period of 5 years
• Maximum term period of 15 years
• Borrow up to 85% of your home’s appraised value** 
• No annual fee
• No upfront closing costs or fees if your loan is $25,000 or greater (see your initial disclosures for complete details).
• Interest may be tax deductible. Consult a tax advisor for details.
