Both loans allow you to borrow against the equity you’ve built in your home over time. Both feature no closing costs, low rates, and local servicing. At Kirtland, there are never any application or annual fees for either of these loans.
You have two great options for accessing your equity. A home equity loan provides a lump sum of cash for your projects or expenses; a home equity line-of-credit allows you to pay as you go for your expenses and make payments only on what you’ve used. Each has features and drawbacks depending on your situation.
Here are the key differences:
Home Equity Loan | Home Equity Line-of-Credit | |

Lump sum | X | |
Pay interest only on the money you use | X | |
Rates as low as | 7.25% APR* | 8.50% APR* |
