About HELOCs

A HELOC, or Home Equity Line of Credit, can provide you with a certain amount of money, usually between 80-90% of the value of your home equity. It works somewhat like a credit card, and the funds are made available to you for a specified time period (typically 5 or 10 years). 

During what is called a “draw period,” you can withdraw funds from the line of credit whenever you need them. As you pay off the principal, your credit revolves, and you can use it again and again for the duration of the draw period.

A HELOC from Bellco FCU offers a variety of benefits:

  • Secured by the equity in your home

  • No restrictions on use of funds

  • Useful for periodic expenses, such as emergency funds, debt consolidation, tuition, and home improvements

  • Adjustable interest rate (with a cap)

  • Withdraw the funds you need when you need them

  • Apply once, then use the funds repeatedly without reapplying

  • Monthly payments vary based on the amount borrowed and the current interest rate

  • Local, Pennsylvania decision-making and processing 

By evaluating your credit worthiness based on your income, assets, debts and past credit use, Bellco FCU can help you determine how much you can afford to borrow.
