  • Generally, a HELOC can be taken out for as much as 80% of your home's value, minus the remaining balance on your mortgage and any existing Home Equity Loans or lines of credit.

    For example, if your home's value is $120,000 and your mortgage balance is $27,000 and you also have an existing home equity loan for $16,000, you could potentially qualify for a HELOC of $53,000. Here's the calculation: $120,000 x 0.8 - ($27,000 + $16,000) = $53,000

    Please keep in mind that this is a general estimate. If you need more than 80% loan-to-value, we may still be able to help. Please contact us to discuss your particular situation.
