Credit Line Mortgages (Home Equity Line of Credit)
Based upon the available equity in the home, Tri-Town can establish a line of credit of up to $100,000.00 secured by your home. As this loan is secured by the home, this interest paid is most likely Tax Deductible (consult a tax professional). Once established, the line of credit is available for your use for a five year period. After this time period, the loan can be paid on monthly installments the same as any other type of loan.
Important points to remember:
- This is a variable rate loan, based upon the 26 week T-Bill plus 4.0%. The Interest rate may change quarterly during the first week of January, April, July and October.
- Advances can be made during the first five years of the loan four times per calendar year in increments of $2,500.00.
- These loans are for Connecticut Property.
- Tri-Town must be listed as Lien Holder on the Home Owner's Insurance. The Borrower is responsible for providing proof of this insurance.
- No Points, Closing costs, or fees of any kind apply to these loans, so they are great for your short term borrowing needs. In most cases, finance charges can be deducted from your income tax, (always check with your tax advisor regarding applicability of deductions).
