Put your equity to work and talk to a loan officer today.

What is home equity?

It’s the difference between the current value of your home and how much is still owed on your mortgage. You can borrow against the amount you own in your primary residence to help you pay for life’s big expenses. Tapping into your home’s equity can be a savvy way to secure low interest rates as you pay off the loan.

“JJ made our HELOC loan process run smoothly. From start to finish he kept us informed of the progress of the loan and answered all the questions we had during the process. He even followed up after the closing to check how it went. JJ has helped us in the past with car loans and again, he made the whole process simple. I would not hesitate to recommend JJ from TEG.”

Home Equity Loan & Home Equity Line of Credit FAQs

What’s the difference between a HELOC and a home equity loan?

Home equity loans provide a lump sum loan payout, so they’re ideal for expenses with established budgets and timelines. They come with a fixed interest rate, and interest is charged on the loan starting with the first loan payment.

Home equity lines of credit (HELOCs) are revolving credit lines used to pay for things over time, so they are ideal for ongoing expenses or those with evolving budgets. HELOCs usually come with an adjustable interest rate, and you only pay interest on the money that you use. In this way, HELOCs are easy to compare to credit cards, except that they are a secured line of credit and often have a much larger credit limit.


How much money can I borrow with these loans?

TEG home equity loans and lines of credit are available at competitive CLTVs for loan amounts between $25,000 and $250,000.


Are there tax advantages with a HELOC or Home Equity Loan?

The interest you pay on the loan might be tax-deductible. But it’s always best to consult with an accountant or tax professional for expert advice.
