Home Equity

Your home’s equity is there when you need it.

Not looking to move? Improve!


Home equity is the difference between the value of your home and how much you owe on your mortgage. Every payment made on your mortgage is contributing to your home’s equity, which can be used to fund one-time or ongoing expenses. 

If you have equity in your home and are looking to borrow more than $20,000, a Home Equity Loan or Line of Credit (HELOC) may be a great option for you. Plus, enjoy low closing costs1 and up to 0.50% APR2 rate reduction when you qualify for Rewards Rates

“We were incredibly impressed with the service and communication for our HELOC application. When we shared an urgent deadline, BCU expedited the process and worked closely with us.

NEVER have we received such incredible service from a financial institution!”
