Home Equity Loans & Lines

Home equity is basically the difference between how much your home is currently worth and how much you owe on your mortgage. With a home equity line of credit (HELOC) or a home equity loan, you can use the equity in your home as collateral to borrow money.

Home Equity Loan

A home equity loan functions more like a traditional mortgage. These loans have a fixed rate with a few term options. After closing, the total amount will be deposited directly into your account, and you’ll have a set monthly payment.

*APR= Annual Percentage Rate and is based on a variable loan product. All loans are subject to credit approval. The introductory promotional 5.99% APR will be in effect for the first six months from the time you close the loan. After the first six months, the APR will adjust to our standard rate. The APR is based on the Prime Rate (index) plus a margin of Prime Plus 0.00% to 2.00% (currently 8.50% – 10.50%). We will use the most recent index available to us as of 10 business days prior to the month-end before the date of any APR adjustment. The rate is subject to change the first of each month to reflect any change in the index. The maximum APR that can apply is 18.00% and the minimum that can apply is 8.50%. The minimum line amount is $10,000. This offer is only good for new loans to Centra on owner-occupied residential properties. All loans must be closed by April 15, 2024. Homeowners insurance is required. Consult your tax advisor about deductibility of interest. Closing costs will range from $150 to $800. Up to $800 of closing costs will be paid by Centra. If the line is paid off and closed within the first 36 months, closing costs must be repaid. If Centra pays a portion of closing costs, the rate margin will increase by 0.40%. Fixed-term and fixed-rate home equity loans are also available. Offer subject to change without notice.

An appraisal may be required for a home equity loan or line of credit. Closing costs can be rolled into the balance of the loan. Home equity products have no prepayment penalties or early payoff fees from Centra. When the loan is paid in full and closed, a service charge may be assessed by the county to release the lien on the property.

1. A rate lock requires a minimum balance of $5,000. There is a $75 service charge to set up a rate lock, which is added to the balance.
2. Reimbursement of the closing costs is required if the line of credit is closed before 36 months or the home equity loan is paid off before 36 months. If Centra pays a portion of closing costs, up to $800, on a home equity line of credit, the rate margin will increase by 0.40%. Home equity loans must be the second lien on the property and loan-to-value must be 80% or less for Centra to pay closing costs up to $800.
