Fixed Rate Home Equity Loan
Borrow against the equity you have built, at a rate that stays the same for the whole term. One amount, one payment, one end date.
Rates change. See Current Rates for today’s figures.
What a Fixed Rate Home Equity Loan Is
You borrow a set amount against the value of your home, above what you still owe on the mortgage, and repay it over a fixed term at a fixed rate. The payment does not move. It suits a project with a known cost, or consolidating debt you want gone by a certain date.
What You Should Know
Rate Stays Fixed
The rate is set at closing and does not change for the life of the loan.
One Lump Sum
You receive the full amount at closing rather than drawing on it over time.
Predictable Payment
Same amount every month, so it plans easily around the rest of your budget.
Secured by Your Home
Your home is the collateral, which is why the rate is usually lower than an unsecured loan.
Known End Date
Fixed term means you know exactly when it is paid off.
What to Have Ready
A Waypoint lender will look at how much your home is worth, how much you still owe, your income, and your credit. Bring a recent mortgage statement and we can start there.
- A recent mortgage statement
- Proof of income
- An idea of what the home is worth
