If high-interest credit cards or home projects are stressing your budget,
your home may already hold the solution.
You’re not bad with money.
You’re just paying the wrong interest rate.
A HELOC lets you use part of your home’s value as money without changing your current mortgage.
You already built the value. A HELOC simply lets you use it.

This is not a generic calculator. It is a quick way to see how a HELOC could fit into your real life, given the equity you’ve built and the rate you already locked in.
If you recognize yourself in either of these, you are not alone. This page is built for you.
I locked a great rate. Now my house needs
to catch up with my life.
Maybe your mortgage is in the 2–4% range. That was a great decision. The challenge now is that your life changed faster than your floor plan:
On paper we’re doing well. In reality, it feels like we’re always catching up.
This is the other pattern we see all the time:
Here is a simple 12-month example with $50,000 (illustration only):
In this example, interest is roughly $600–$700/month lower.
Your actual numbers will depend on your credit profile, property and final terms, but the spread between 24% and a high-single-digit HELOC is real.
Illustration compares 12 months of interest only. A HELOC repaid over 10–30 years may result in higher total interest paid over the life of the loan than continuing your current card payments. See full disclosures below.
You are not looking for another generic bank product. You want someone to help you think through the math and the trade-offs, with your low-rate first mortgage as the starting point.
Typical interest:
20% – 25%
Typical range:
7% – 9% APR
All scenarios, examples and figures on this page are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent a commitment to lend. The estimated rates (including the 8% APR HELOC example) are not offers and may not reflect current market conditions. Actual rates, terms, payments and potential savings will vary based on your credit profile, property, program selection and state-specific guidelines.
Home Equity Lines of Credit (HELOCs) are secured by your home and may involve variable interest rates, fees and closing costs. Using a HELOC to consolidate debt may increase the total number of payments made and the total interest paid over the life of your obligations.
Any HELOC offer will be subject to a completed application, credit approval and underwriting review. Rates and terms are subject to change without notice. Nothing on this page should be considered tax or financial advice. Please consult your own advisor.
Heloc typical range varies by credit and home value
