Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC)
A Home Equity Line Of Credit is a floating-rate mortgage on your home. It is a revolving line of credit, like a credit card account, except that you access your loan funds by writing checks drawn on your credit line. You will receive a monthly statement that shows all of the checks you wrote, any payments you have made, the interest you were charged, and a minimum payment for that month.
Share Loans (Passbook Loans)
A loan may be taken against any savings, money market or certificate account, except IRA’s, at a rate of 2% above the deposit account. There is no fixed term or repayment schedule and the only requirement is to pay the billed interest due each month. The book or certificate is held at Midstate for collateral and the amount of the loan is deducted from the withdrawable balance of the deposit.
