Compare ways to access your home equity.

Home equity is the difference between your home's market value and the amount you owe on your mortgage.

Home equity line of credit (HELOC)

Useful if you're planning a major project with multiple purchases, a HELOC offers ongoing access to funds at rates lower than most credit cards. Plus, you have the option to lock in a fixed rate on some or all of your HELOC.

Funds as you need them

Home equity loan

A home equity loan is worth considering if you have a large, one-time expense, or if you want to consolidate debt and focus on paying it off. It offers fixed rates and a steady repayment schedule for the life of the loan.

Fixed rates and payments

Cash-out refinance

A cash-out refinance lets you access the equity in your home and get cash at closing. It's a great way to get new mortgage terms and borrow funds for one-time expenses at the same time.
