These third party fees generally total between $553.96 and $2,516.04.

3The Variable Introductory Rate is based upon The Wall Street Journal Prime Rate ("Prime") (8.00% on 4/1/2023) minus 0.50%. Prime may change at any time without notice.

The Variable Rate Introductory Offer is applicable to all funds withdrawn from the line of credit during the 12 month Introductory Period beginning from the date the HELOC is opened. After the Variable Rate Period ends, any and all remaining balances will automatically convert to the Variable Rate of the Prime Minus 0.25%, if a Direct Rewards Checking, High Interest Checking, or Emerald Checking account with automatic payment is maintained. If Prime increases or decreases, the Variable Rate and minimum required payment will correspondingly change. Other APRs apply without a Direct Rewards Checking, High Interest Checking, or Emerald Checking account with automatic payment. APRs are variable and may change monthly, bases upon the Prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal (8.00% on 4/1/2023), but will not exceed 15.00%. Offer is available on first and second liens with a maximum CLTV of 90% on single-family, owner-occupied residences. HELOC is a 10-year open-end draw line with interest-only monthly payments and 15-year fully amortized monthly payments of principal and interest. Offer is subject to credit approval. Property insurance and, if applicable, flood insurance are required. No closing costs for loans up to $250,000. If you cancel/close your line within 3 years you must reimburse the bank for any third party fees (ranging from $553.96 - $2,516.04) at the time of cancellation. Loans over $250,000: borrower is responsible for 1.00% mortgage tax. Consult tax advisor for tax deductibility. Rates, terms and conditions are subject to change without notice.
