There is a second home equity loan you may not be as familiar with, and it’s all about ease and convenience. It’s a home equity line of credit (HELOC). Just like the traditional home equity loan, the line of credit is secured by the equity you have in your home. However, with a HELOC, you are approved to borrow a specific sum of money based on the value of your home and the equity you have built.
Your approval amount becomes your available loan balance. You don't have to borrow all of it at the time of approval or even the next week. You borrow it when you need it!
Ease of Use
With a HELOC, your loan operates more like a credit card than a loan. You have a pre-approved limit, and you borrow money, using a designated Visa card, whenever and wherever you need the money. The amount you borrow decreases your available principle, and as you repay the HELOC, your available credit builds. It’s as easy as using a credit card!
Affordable
MACU HELOCs have a very low interest rate, making borrowing from your line of credit much more affordable than using high-interest credit cards.
Versatile
MACU HELOCs are not just for home improvement! In addition to sprucing up your home, you can take that dream vacation you’ve always wanted, pay off high-interest debt with a low-interest HELOC, pay for college expenses, or anything else you may need or want!
