Frequently Asked Questions

You’ve got home equity questions. We’ve got answers.

What’s the Difference Between a Home Equity Loan and a HELOC?

A home equity loan provides a lump sum with fixed rates and set monthly payments over a fixed term. A HELOC (Home Equity Line of Credit) offers a revolving credit line, letting you borrow as needed with variable rates and flexible payments.‍

What’s the Difference Between a Home Equity Loan
and a Cash-Out Refinance?

A home equity loan is a second mortgage, allowing you to borrow against your home's equity while keeping your original mortgage. A cash-out refinance replaces your existing mortgage with a new one for a larger amount, giving you the difference in cash.

Is a Home Equity Loan the Same Thing as a Second Mortgage?

Yes, a home equity loan is a type of second mortgage. It allows you to borrow against your home’s equity while keeping your original mortgage in place. You receive a lump sum and repay it with fixed monthly payments.
