Home Equity Loan and Lines of Credit
Put Your Home to Work. Access Cash for What Matters Most.
Why Work with Town Team?
You’ve worked hard to build equity in your home, now let that equity work for you. Whether you’re planning a major renovation, consolidating high-interest debt, or preparing for life’s big milestones, Town Team Mortgage provides flexible second-mortgage options that let you keep your low first-mortgage rate intact.
Two Ways to Access Your Equity
Not sure which option is right for you? Here is how we help you "Beat the Bank" with the two most popular equity products:
Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC)
A HELOC works like a credit card secured by your home. You are approved for a specific limit and can draw exactly what you need, when you need it.
-
Best For: Ongoing projects, emergency funds, or variable expenses like tuition.
-
The Advantage: You only pay interest on the amount you actually use. As rates trend lower in 2026, a variable-rate HELOC allows you to benefit from falling interest costs automatically.
Home Equity Loan (HELOAN)
A HELOAN provides a one-time lump sum of cash at a fixed interest rate.
-
Best For: Large, one-time expenses with a clear cost, such as a roof replacement or major debt consolidation.
-
The Advantage: You get the peace of mind of a predictable, "set-it-and-forget-it" monthly payment that will never change.
The Town Team Advantage
-
Preserve Your Low First-Mortgage Rate: If you have a 3% or 4% rate on your primary mortgage, you don't want to lose it. Our equity products sit "behind" your current loan, allowing you to access cash without touching your primary rate.
-
Up to 95% LTV Options: While big banks often cap your borrowing at 80% of your home's value, Town Team's products allow qualified borrowers to access up to 95% of their equity.
What Can You Do With Your Equity?
-
Home Improvements: Add value to your property with a kitchen remodel or new deck.
-
Debt Consolidation: Pay off high-interest credit cards (often 20%+) with a much lower-interest equity loan.
-
Major Life Events: Fund weddings, dream vacations, or college tuition.
-
Financial Safety Net: Keep a HELOC open for "just in case" peace of mind.
