Let the equity in your home work for you. Home Equity Lines of Credit and Loans are great ways to pay off high-interest credit cards, consolidate debt, improve the look of your home, or pay for big expenses, like your child’s dream wedding. They can also provide possible tax deductibility advantages.
A Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC)1 may be better for you if you:
- Need a revolving credit line to borrow from and pay down multiple times
- Want a credit line available for future emergencies
Other advantages of a HELOC from Bank of Clarke include:
- The Bank will allow HELOCs of up to 89% of your home’s value
- We will pay all closing costs on any new variable rate HELOCs up to $500K
- Revolving line of credit allowing you borrow as little or as much as you need, up to your credit limit
- Convenient access to funds – by check, by phone, at a branch, or through online banking
A Home Equity Loan can be the best choice for you if you:
- Know the exact amount of funding you need for a one-time, fixed expense
- Don’t want to access a new credit line and risk creating more debt
- Need a set monthly payment that doesn’t fluctuate
