How Home Equity Lines of Credit Work

With our Home Equity Line of Credit, you have a 7-year period where you can draw freely from the available funds. Then, once that period concludes, the 15-year repayment period begins. However, since there are no prepayment penalties, you do not need to take the full 15 years to repay the loan.

Here are some additional loan details you should know:

The minimum loan amount is $10,000.
The minimum 1st-time advance is $500.
Subsequent advances can be $100 or more.
You’ll get easy access to your funds through your Share Draft (Checking) Account.
The property deed associated with this loan must be in your name, and the title must be clear.
The property must also be your primary residence.

Been with MHCU for 35 years, since it was known as the IBM Employees Federal Credit Union. No reason to bank elsewhere. They have serviced all my share account and loan needs; on my 4th home mortgage with them.
