How it works

Available line = home value × max CLTV% − current mortgage balance. Interest-only payment = draw × APR ÷ 12. Repayment payment amortizes the draw with the standard formula; a 0% APR divides it evenly.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a home equity loan and a HELOC?

A home equity loan disburses a lump sum with fixed payments; a HELOC is a revolving line you draw from. Both are secured by your home.

Is there an official national home-equity rate?

No single official benchmark exists. The CFPB guidance linked on the home-equity rates page explains how these products are priced — always compare lender disclosures.

What are the main risks?

Your home is collateral: missed payments can lead to foreclosure. Borrow only what the monthly payment comfortably allows.
