HOME EQUITY (PRIMARY RESIDENCE)

RATES & TERMS

Program terms, rates and APRs are effective as of EFFECTIVE_DATE and are subject to change without notice.

PLEASE BE ADVISED: Today's rates assume the following:

  • A minimum credit score of 720
  • A loan-to-value ratio of 80% for Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC)
  • A loan-to-value ratio of 70% for a Home Equity Loan

The rate or margin you may qualify for is based on factors including your credit rating and the combined loan-to-value (CLTV) of your property. Not all applicants will qualify for the lowest rate/APR and margin. A minimum credit qualifying score is required. All loans are subject to approval. APR = Annual Percentage Rate.

Payment examples do not include the cost of property taxes or insurance, so the actual payment obligation will be greater. See additional Important Definitions and Information below.

Typical Home Equity Loan and Home Equity Line of Credit processing time is 45 days from submission of an application to funding.​

To apply, please call the Real Estate Lending department at 800.462.8328, ext. 8288, or email us at realestateinfo@schoolsfirstfcu.org.

Important Definitions and Information

Home Equity Loan: A second mortgage you take against the equity you've built in your home.

Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC): An open line of credit you borrow against the equity in your home and draw funds from as you need.

HELOC Payments: Interest-only payments are made for the first 10 years. The remaining 15-year term is fully amortized.

HELOC Lifetime Maximum Cap: 18.000% APR. The highest rate that can be charged.

Index Rate is the current highest "prime rate" as reported in The Wall Street Journal on the last business day of the month preceding the start date of each billing cycle.

Fully Indexed Rate: The index rate plus margin that results in the APR.

Annual Fee for HELOCs: $50. Fee will be waived if payments are automatically transferred from a SchoolsFirst FCU Share Savings or Checking account.

Home Equity Loan and HELOC Origination Fees: No lender origination fees are required unless accommodation recording fees, title charges to clear or transfer liens, or indemnification due to construction on the subject property are required. The borrower is responsible for these costs.

Eligible Property Types: Single family residence, condominium, and Planned Unit Development (PUD). Restrictions apply to multi-unit and income properties. Property must be located in California.

Property Construction/Sale: The borrower is required to wait until loan funds are received to begin work on the property. A property with construction already in progress may not be eligible. If approved, additional fees will be required. Properties currently listed for sale are not eligible.

Maximum Combined-Loan-To-Value (CLTV): The principal balance of all mortgages on the property (including the balance of the first mortgage) divided by the value of the property. The maximum CLTV for a condominium or attached PUD is 80%.

Property Insurance: A required insurance policy that provides protection to the borrower against loss or damage and to the lender’s interest in the property.
