tap into your home’s equity
Equity is the difference between how much your home is worth and how much you owe on any existing mortgages. A Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) or a Home Equity Loan lets you borrow money using the equity in your home as collateral.
Our members typically use HELOCs and Home Equity Loans to help them realize major goals and dreams, such as home remodeling, a child’s college education, the perfect wedding, or that once-in-a-lifetime trip. These loans may also allow for a tax deduction, so you can keep more of your hard-earned money. Please consult your tax advisor for details.
Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC)
A HELOC is a revolving line of credit, similar to a credit card. You can borrow as much as you need up to your credit limit, whenever you need it. Because a HELOC is a line of credit, you make payments only on the amount you borrow, not on the full amount available to you. Your monthly payment amount will vary depending on the amount you are borrowing.
If you want flexible access to money (over a period of ten years with a 15-year repayment period), a HELOC may be right for you.
Home Equity Loan
A Home Equity Loan provides you with a fixed amount of money, to be repaid in set monthly installments for a fixed period of time—similar to a mortgage payment.
If you want the consistency of a low, fixed interest rate, a defined term, and a set monthly payment, a Home Equity Loan may be the best fit for you.

FAQs
There are costs associated with home equity loans and lines of credit; however, Reliant will pay all third-party fees on its home equity loans and lines of credit, as long as certain qualifications are met. The fees will generally total between $295 (for a $7,500 loan) and $2,893 (for a $175,000 loan). You can find the details in the disclosure on this page.
A home equity line of credit (HELOC) is a revolving line of credit, much like a credit card. You can borrow as much as you need, any time you need it, by taking an advance through online banking, at any Reliant branch, at an ATM, over the phone at 800-724-9282, or with HELOC checks. You may not exceed your credit limit. Because a HELOC is a line of credit, you make payments only on the amount you actually use, not the full amount available.
A home equity loan is a loan for a fixed amount of money. You repay the loan with equal monthly payments over a fixed term, just like you’d do with any installment loan (e.g. an auto loan, a mortgage, etc.).
