What is a HELOC?

A CCCU Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) is a great way to finance all of life's planned and unplanned events.

Our HELOC is a revolving source of money secured by the equity in your home, which you can access for up to 15 years. CCCU even allows you to lock in your rate for 5 or 15 years. After your draw period, you will have 15 additional years to repay the loan balance (your repayment period) in monthly installments. While you are able to borrow up to 80% of your home's appraised value, you are only required to take a minimum line amount of $10,000.

With a HELOC, the possibilities are truly limitless.

Home improvement projects made easy

Take the edge off of your next home improvement project by relying on a CCCU Home Equity Line of Credit to get the job done right. Repairs, renovations, and remodels are less stressful when you know you have the flexibility of a HELOC on your side.

  • Access your line for small or large purchases throughout your entire project during your draw period.
  • With competitive HELOC rates, you can be confident you will complete your next project on budget.
  • Enjoy potential tax deductions on your interest payments. Be sure to consult a tax advisor for details.

“I've never applied for a loan before, but today Katherine N. walked me through the process and made it pain-free and simple. She's amazing at her job: super helpful and kind, and you can tell from her voice she truly, actually cares. That matters to me, and it should probably matter to you, too.

HELOC Frequently Asked Questions

Am I eligible for a HELOC?

Because a HELOC is borrowed against the equity in your home, you must be a homeowner to apply for this type of loan. Other application consideration factors include your income, employment status, credit score and history, and how much you'd like to borrow.

What's the difference between a HELOC and a home equity loan?

Both a HELOC and a home equity loan use your home's equity as collateral. While a home equity loan is a fixed term loan that involves a single disbursement of funds, a HELOC is a revolving, variable line of credit that makes funds available for withdrawal and repayment over a set period of time. 

Can I transfer a HELOC from another institution?

Yes, you can refinance your existing HELOC with CCCU. If you have a HELOC at another institution, contact us. In many cases, we’re able to offer a lower interest rate and could save you money. 

How do I access my HELOC funds?

In order to access your CCCU line of credit, you must first transfer the funds from your HELOC to a CCCU checking or savings account. Once the transfer to your CCCU checking or savings account is complete, you’ll have access to writing personal checks and using your debit card with the transferred funds from your HELOC!


You can easily initiate a same-day transfer to your CCCU checking or savings account via online banking or the mobile app.

Do I receive the loan amount over time with a HELOC?

When the HELOC funds, the entire credit limit is available for disbursement. How you choose to use it is up to you.  You can use all of it, some of it, or even leave it at a $0 balance for future use. Best of all, you only pay interest on the amount you actually use!

Will my interest rate change over time?

Like most HELOCs, our HELOC is an open-ended loan with a variable interest rate. This rate is based on the Wall Street Journal prime rate, plus or minus the margin. The frequency of when interest rate changes may occur will vary based on the HELOC structure you choose.

Refer to our HELOC rates (above) and Equity Loan Account Disclosure or contact credit union for complete details.  

What type of HELOCs does CCCU offer?

We offer 3 different interest rate structures on our HELOCs.  Our standard CCCU HELOC has a variable rate that adjusts every 3 months.  We also offer an interest rate that adjusts once every 5 years, or once every 15 years based on your borrowing preference. These interest rates are based on the Wall Street Journal Prime rate, plus or minus a margin.  For further details, refer to our HELOC rates (above) and Equity Loan Account Disclosure.

What will I need to complete my application?

You don’t need any documents to apply for a HELOC, but you will need to gather the following to complete your loan:

  • Income verification (pay stubs, W2s, taxes, etc)
  • Homeowners insurance information
  • Statement for your existing first mortgage (if applicable)
Will I have to pay an application fee?

We generally do not charge an application fee for consumer loan applications.  When you apply for a Home Equity Line of Credit, there are some situations when a fee may be assessed.

Will I have to pay an annual fee?

No. CCCU does not charge annual fees on HELOCs.

How much time will I have to draw funds from the HELOC?

At CCCU, you can draw on your HELOC for up to 15 years. Payment options during the draw period include principal and interest or interest only. Refer to our Equity Loan Account Disclosure or contact credit union for complete details. 

How much time will I have to repay the HELOC?

Fifteen years, beginning at the end of the draw period. Your monthly payment during this 15-year period includes principal and interest. Note that the APR continues to be variable and based on the Wall Street Journal prime rate, plus or minus the margin, which is provided with the original loan documents. Refer to our Equity Loan Account Disclosure or contact credit union for complete details.
