Borrow Using the Equity in My Home

As a valued Citadel customer, we make it easy to get the cash you need. Home equity loans allow you to borrow against the equity in your home. Essentially, your home’s equity is its market value minus your mortgage balance. From making home improvements to consolidating credit cards, a home equity loan can help.

Unsure about what the difference between a home equity loan and home equity line of credit is? With a Home Equity Loan, you receive the money in a lump sum with a fixed interest rate. With a Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC), you have the ability to draw the money multiple times as you need money up until the maximum amount with a variable rate.

Pleasant, Polite and Professional

“Citadel is amazing! Thank you so much to Citadel’s Mortgage Team! I recently tried to get a HELOC with another bank and they didn’t communicate, denied me without any notice for equity, and gave me a low estimate. I told my husband that we should try Citadel. Going with Citadel was the best decision ever. The communication was on point and the process was a breath of fresh air. Everyone was so pleasant, polite, and professional. I’ve been telling everyone about my great experience!”

Happy HELOC Customer

“After 20 years of business with another credit union, my Home Equity Line of Credit term ended. When I tried to renew it, I was told 'I could re-apply' and was bombarded with 50 requirements to prove I could be trusted, even though I'd never had a late payment. When I walked into a brand new Citadel that opened near by, the staff (who were total strangers) treated me like an old friend. After a basic credit inquiry, I had my new HELOC, as well as three other new accounts (at better rates)! When I closed my old account, I let my former lender know how warmly I was treated by Citadel! ”
