Money to make home your happy place.
Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC)
You have the power to secure all or a portion of your current balance with a fixed interest rate and a set monthly payment in up to 3 different loans we call segments.
'Segments' allow you to take control of your financial stability. By locking in specific portions of your line of credit, you're ensuring that they won't be subject to interest rate fluctuations. This means your monthly payments remain steady and predictable, making it easier to manage your finances and plan for the future with confidence.

HELOC Calculator
This calculator is made available to you as an educational tool for your independent use and estimation and is not intended to provide actual loan details or an offer of credit.
** APR=Annual Percentage Rate. Promotional rate on the HELOC of 4.50% APR for the first 6 months of the loan. APR for all transactions and balances will be based upon your contracted rate which will be a variable rate based upon The Wall Street Journal prime rate which was 7.50% as of 12/18/2024 but will never be more than the maximum APR (Annual Percentage Rate) of 18% or less than 4.00%.
***A fixed rate segment cannot be transferred to another open segment. Once opened, additional funds cannot be added to an existing fixed rate segment. On single segment payments the interest accrued on that segment will be deducted from the payment and the remaining balance will be applied to the principal on that segment only. Segment only payments can only be processed by a MAX employee. Term and rate will be determined per the agreement signed at closing.
This is a variable rate loan. Your loan has a balloon payment. At the end of the loan term, any balance remaining will have to be paid. Most consumers with a balloon note refinance their loan before the final balloon payment becomes due. A minimum outstanding balance of $10,000 must be maintained for the first 18 months to avoid closing costs. Closing costs may range from $115-$1150. This convenient line of credit is available when you need it. Homeowners insurance required. For qualified borrowers, certain restrictions apply.
