Home Equity Interest Only Revolving Loan

SunWest offers an interest only type of Home Owner Members Equity (HOME) Revolving Loan. Currently, it offers no annual fee, $200 minimum advance, and 70% of your home's appraisal (less any encumbrances). You can access your Home Equity Interest Only Line of Credit by using drafts issued at the time your loan is disbursed ($200 minimum draft), through VAL-our audio response system, or by visiting any of our branch offices.

With the Interest Only loan, you make interest-only payments for the first 24 months, making for a very low payment. The annual percentage rate is based on the prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal, adjusted bi-annually (floor of 4.50% APR*/maximum 18.00%APR*). The minimum line of credit is $5,000 with a maximum of $50,000. You may also be able to deduct the interest you pay on this loan, but you may want to consult with your tax advisor. Apply NOW!

Home Equity - VISA Platinum

SunWest is proud to offer our Home Equity Line of Credit Loan with the VISA Platinum Preferred Credit Card. The VISA Platinum Preferred Credit Card is attached to our Home Equity Line of Credit, secured by a second mortgage on your home.

We will lend you 90% of the value of your home (less any encumbrances), with a credit limit available up to $100,000. No closing costs*, no points, no transaction fees or balloon payments required. No annual fees or other hidden charges. The draw period for advances is 60 months and this draw period automatically renews every 5 years until you put the loan into the repayment mode.

With the VISA Platinum Preferred Credit Card,

  • We offer a 25 day grace period on purchases, if the balances are paid in full each month.
  • Loan drafts are also available to access your line of credit, at no cost to you.
  • Monthly payments are very low with a required payment of only 1.50% of the outstanding balance per month.
  • The interest rate on our Home Equity Line of Credit is variable and tied to Prime Rate, with no margin. We have a floor of 4.50% APR* and a maximum of 18% APR*.
  • And, because the VISA Platinum Preferred Credit Card is secured by the equity in your home, you may be able to take a tax deduction on the interest you pay. However, we suggest you consult with your tax advisor. This tax deductibility could save you hundreds of dollars a year.
And, with the VISA Platinum Preferred Credit Card, you also gain other recognized features when you carry this credit card.
  • Prestige and Status of carrying the Platinum Credit Card
  • Extra Service Features
  • Purchase Assurance

Using the VISA Platinum Preferred Credit Card and the equity in your home can be used as a 'financial management' tool to:

  • Consolidate your debt to lower your monthly payments
  • Control and manage your debt all in one place
