Save Money Over Time with a Home Equity Loan or Line of Credit

When you think about your home, some expenses may come to mind, like your monthly mortgage and utility payments, as well as the cost of general upkeep. But when you add a home equity loan or line of credit to your financial picture, you could save money ultimately by reducing your taxes, lowering your monthly expenses and paying your debts.


Reduce Your Taxes.

When you use a home equity loan or line of credit, you save while you spend. The interest you pay for either option may be tax deductible. We encourage you to talk to a tax advisor for more details.


Pay Less Each Month.

Just use the value of your home to get money at a lower interest rate for anything you need: a car, education, travel, home improvement, even debt consolidation.


When you compare the higher amount you'd have to pay each month on some loans, you'll see how much you can save with a loan or line of credit over time.


Your Savings Grow with You.

Here are a few examples of how a home equity line of credit can help you save money.

APR is based on an index and margin we have used recently.  Home equity lines of credit have variable interest rates which may increase or decrease.  Payment amounts are subject to change on a monthly basis as rates change.  Savings from month to month and annually may vary as rates and payments change.  Payments shown are interest only for a set period of time and principal and interest thereafter.  While making interest only payments, principal is not reduced.  At the end of the interest only period your monthly payment will increase, possibly substantially,  because you will be required to pay down the outstanding principal plus interest.  Always consider paying more than the minimum payment to pay down principal.
