Hanscom FCU offers Home Equity Plans on primary residences to our members nationwide, with the exception of Texas, Alaska, Hawaii, and New York.

The plan allows up to three fixed rate advances from your line at any given time during the 10 year draw period. If you terminate your line within the first 24 months after closing, you will be responsible for closing costs. These costs generally range from $400-$700. Closing costs do not include any taxes (if necessary). Interest begins accruing upon loan disbursal. Check with your tax adviser about tax deductibility of interest. Homeowners insurance is required. Total Mortgages/Property Value = LTV. Maximum allowed CLTV may vary by state.

While most banks are asking for the blood of your first born before they approve your loan, HFCU makes the process simple and easy to refinance your mortgage or Home Equity Line of Credit. I gave them the same exact information I did with "America's Bank" without naming any names, and got a different and better result. Great CU to bank on when you are trying to optimize all of your financial needs.
