Home Equity
Lines of Credit

Using your property as collateral for a line of credit is a great option for home improvement and other major purchases. Home equity lines of credit are either combined with a mortgage or offered as a stand-alone product.

Using HELOC can be a great advantage for borrowers who need access to funds but don’t want to go through the process of applying for a new loan every time they need money.

Home equity lines of credit as a stand-alone product

A stand-alone home equity line of credit is a revolving credit product that is secured by the equity in your home and can be used as a substitute for a mortgage.

A home equity line of credit can offer increased flexibility when compared to a more traditional mortgage. With a home equity line of credit, the borrower has the ability to choose when and how much they borrow, within the limits of the credit line.
