HELOC Rates

*APR = Annual Percentage Rate. The current APR is as low as 7.25% as of 4/1/2025. 4.99% APR is a Fixed Introductory Rate for the first six months of the loan. The 6-month Introductory Period begins on the date of account opening. No member or other discounts are available during the Fixed-Rate Introductory Period. After the Introductory Period ends, any and all remaining balances will automatically convert to the variable APR per the terms of the HELOC agreement. The variable APR is based upon The Wall Street Journal Prime Rate (“Prime”) plus a margin or minus a discount and will vary with prime. Your APR will not exceed 15.00% or go below 3.00% at any time during the term of your account. APR may vary based on the initial draw, actual Combined Loan–to–Value (CLTV), property value, property location, line amount, and other factors. The term of a HELOC is 30 years: 10-year draw period [Draw Period: The draw period is the period when you can access and borrow money from your HELOC, up to your approved credit limit. During this period, you can borrow money, up to the credit limit, and pay interest on the amount you've borrowed], 20-year repayment period. The variable minimum monthly payment during the draw period will be 1.25% of the outstanding balance each month or $100.00, whichever is greater. The monthly required payment is based on your outstanding loan balance and current interest rate (interest rates can increase or decrease) and may vary each month.

 

Other terms, fees, and restrictions may apply. Qualifying rates may be based on a combination of your credit score, collateral, loan-to-value (LTV) position, and other normal lending criteria. Property insurance is always required, and flood insurance is required where necessary. Certain property types are not eligible collateral. You should consult your tax advisor regarding your possible tax implications. Rates are subject to change.
