Home Improvement Loan FAQs

How much can I borrow for a home improvement loan?

Loan amounts vary based on your credit, income, and project needs. Your loan officer will help you determine the right amount for your situation.

How is a home improvement loan different from a HELOC?

A HELOC provides a revolving line of credit, while a home improvement loan can be structured as a one-time loan with fixed repayment terms.

Do I need equity in my home to qualify?

Not always. Home improvement loans are often secured by your home. However, for smaller projects, we can look at using other assets as collateral, making them an option even if you don’t want to use your home’s equity.

Can I use the loan for multiple projects?

Yes. Many customers use one loan to cover several projects, whether it’s remodeling, repairs, or energy efficiency upgrades.

How long does the approval process take?

Because decisions are made locally, approvals are typically quicker than with larger banks. Your loan officer will walk you through the process from application to funding.
