Home Equity Lines and Loans

 

Looking to renovate your home or consolidate debt?

A Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) or a Home Equity Loan from Central One can help you leverage the value from your owner-occupied home or second home. The right choice depends on your situation and need. Compare the options below, or call a member support specialist to help determine which option is right for you.


Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC)

A home equity line of credit (HELOC) is an open-ended line of credit where your home serves as collateral. Similar to a credit card, you can borrow what you need, as you need it, until you reach your credit limit. Central One only offers HELOCs on owner-occupied and second homes.

Best Uses

  • Consolidate Debt: Pay off high-interest credit card balances, student loans or other expenses.
  • Home Improvements: Use the funds to increase your home's value and your living experience.
  • Child's Education Expenses: Reduce your child's student loan burden with a lower rate HELOC.
  • Financial Protection: Sleep soundly knowing you have access to cash when you need it.

Benefits

  • Borrow up to 80% of the appraised value of your home or 70% of the tax-assessed value* 
  • Only pay interest on the funds you borrow
  • Variable interest rate starting as low as Prime minus 1%
  • Rate only adjusts once per year, on the 15th of the month in which the line was opened, even if Prime goes up!
  • Interest may be tax deductible (consult your tax advisor)
  • No closing costs for properties within Worcester County (appraisal and title search may be required)**

Accessing Funds

Accessing funds from your HELOC is simple using online or mobile banking. Easily transfer funds from your home equity line of credit to your checking (or other account). 

Funds may also be accessed using the check book provided when you opened your home equity line of credit.

Just like our standard home equity line of credit (HELOC), the 100% Loan to Value Home Equity Line of Credit is an open-ended line of credit in which your primary residence (single family home, duplex or condo) serves as collateral. Borrow what you need for home improvement purposes.
