Home Equity Loans and Lines of Credit
Your home’s equity is a valuable tool that you can put to work in order to help with your finances. First Option Bank offers two solutions: Home Equity Loans and Home Equity Lines of Credit (HELOCs).
- Home Equity Loan: This is a lump sum loan where you receive the entire amount of the loan up front. They have a maximum term of 10 years and offer a fixed rate so you can plan on paying the same amount each month.
- HELOCs: These act as a revolving line of credit that allows you to draw on the loan as you need it. HELOC interest rates are variable and a 10-year term.
Construction Loans
If you want to make sure your new home is built to your exact specifications, a construction loan is the perfect solution. These loans allow you finance the building of your home. Here’s what you need to know about construction loans:
