** APR means Annual Percentage Rate. The APR for this Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) is variable and is based on the Prime Rate as published in the Money Rates section of The Wall Street Journal (the “Index”) plus a margin. As of 05/04/2023, the Index value is 8.25% and the margin rate is 0%. An increase in the Index will result in an increase in the periodic rate which, in turn, will result in higher payments. In no event will the APR increase by more than 2% in any one year, not to exceed the lesser of 18% APR or the maximum rate allowed by applicable law.
*** APR means Annual Percentage Rate. Your final APR may vary based upon customary fees and closing costs which are included in your final APR. Rates and terms are subject to change without prior notice; other restrictions may apply. EECU home loan programs are only available in Texas.

For HELOCs, a minimum $4,000 draw amount is required. No draws are allowed on a HELOC when the HELOC balance is greater than 80 percent of the fair market value of the homestead, as determined when the HELOC was originally granted (even if additional credit limit is available).
HELOC Minimum Payment Requirements: Your minimum monthly payment will be calculated after each credit advance, and will be $14.00 per $1,000.00 of the outstanding balance after each advance rounded up to the nearest $1,000.00. Your payment amount will remain the same unless you obtain another credit advance. We will recalculate your payment each time you obtain an advance. Ex: a HELOC with $50,000 balance will require a $700 payment at the time of the draw ($50,000 balance ÷ 1,000 = 50 x $14 = $700).
