Annual Percentage Rate (APR) is 6.59% as of November 20, 2024, to qualifying applicants for a fixed-rate home equity loan amortized over 60 months. APR is based upon a rate of 6.28%, an origination fee of 0.75%, closing costs of $150 and a loan-to-value up to 85%.

For example: A home equity loan with an amount financed of $100,000 at a 6.28% fixed rate and including a 0.75% origination fee and $150 in closing costs would have an APR of 6.59%, and you would make 60 payments of $1,946 and pay total interest of $16,780.

For example: A home improvement loan with an amount financed of $50,000 at a 6.12% fixed rate and including a $100 origination fee would have an APR of 6.25%, and you would make 36 payments of $1,524 and pay total interest of $4,857. Current APRs range from 6.21% to 7.36% APR. Loans are available in the amounts of $10,000 to $75,000. Term lengths of up to 84 months are available.
