Variable-rate monthly minimum payments

The minimum amount you will need to pay each month (does not include any payments for the Fixed-Rate Loan Payment Option). The payment amount includes both principal and interest (minimum of $100). The monthly required payment is based on your outstanding loan balance and current interest rate (interest rates can increase or decrease), and may vary each month. In general, this payment is intended to repay your loan balance with principal and interest installments over the remaining loan term, based on the balance and rate information at the time of each monthly calculation.

Variable rate

An interest rate that may fluctuate or change periodically, often in relation to an index such as the prime rate or other criteria. Payments may increase or decrease accordingly.

Draw period

The period during which a borrower can obtain advances from the available line of credit or construction loan proceeds. At the end of the draw period on a credit line, you may be able to renew the credit line or may be required to pay the outstanding balance in full or in monthly installments.

Repayment period (line of credit)

In a line of credit, the period when no advances of principal are available and during which the line must be fully repaid, according to the payment terms. In a home equity line of credit, the repayment period is the portion of the loan term that follows the draw period.

Fixed-Rate Loan Option monthly minimum payments

The minimum amount you will need to pay each month on your home equity line of credit Fixed-Rate Loan Option. Fixed monthly payments include principal and interest and remain the same over the Fixed-Rate Loan Option term.

Why did my initial withdrawal amount change?

At account opening, the Fixed-Rate Loan Option is available for a maximum of 90% of your line of credit. The amount has been adjusted automatically to a lower initial withdrawal for more accurate payment results.

Fixed-Rate Loan Option

A Fixed-Rate Loan Option locks in a fixed rate for a portion of your withdrawal made at account opening (there is no fee to do this).

Why don't I see a payment amount?

Payments on a home equity line of credit are based on the total amount you withdraw. By having a zero initial withdrawal, there is no initial balance that will require payment.
