Home Equity Line of Credit

Your Home Has Value. Access It on Your Terms.

Your home is one of your most valuable financial assets. FNBA’s Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) gives South Jersey homeowners a flexible way to tap into that value—without taking a lump sum all at once. Whether you are managing ongoing expenses, planning renovations in stages, or building a financial safety net, a HELOC puts you in control of how and when you borrow.

What Can You Use a HELOC For?

A HELOC provides revolving access to funds, making it ideal for both planned and unexpected expenses. Common uses include:

Home improvements and renovations

Pay for projects over time as work is completed

Debt management

Pay down higher-interest balances at your own pace

Major expenses

Tuition, medical costs, or large purchases

Emergency access

Be prepared for unexpected repairs or financial needs

Because you borrow only what you need, a HELOC can be a more efficient and cost-effective solution than a traditional lump-sum loan.

How a HELOC Works

With a HELOC, your available credit limit is determined by your home’s equity and a review of additional underwriting guidelines.

Once approved, you can access funds as needed rather than taking a lump sum at closing. This gives you the flexibility to borrow only what you need, when you need it.

During the draw period, you may use your line of credit and make payments based on the amount you have borrowed. As you repay your balance, your available credit is replenished—allowing you to continue accessing funds over time. Home equity line of credit rates are available through our branches in New Jersey. 

Understanding Loan-to-Value (LTV)

Loan-to-value, or LTV, is the ratio of your total loan balance to the appraised value of your home. Our bank’s HELOCs are available up to 80% LTV. This means your combined mortgage and line of credit cannot exceed 80% of your home’s value.  Home values are determined through appraisals by FNBA approved venders. 

Example: If your home is valued at $250,000 and you owe $150,000 on your mortgage, you may have up to $50,000 available in a HELOC (80% of $250,000 = $200,000, minus $150,000).

Qualification and Application

FNBA takes a practical, relationship-based approach to lending. To apply, you will complete a loan application and provide documentation to verify your income and credit profile. This typically includes:

Lending You Can Trust

I met with Amanda today in the Absecon branch and requested some assistance gathering information in reference to my loan. Polite, professional, and very personable. It was great to be able to speak with someone in person who appeared to truly want to help. Thank you again and have a fantastic day.

Amanda and Nick took the time to help me out with my accounts and made sure i had everything straightened out. They were very patient and made the calls to help figure things out. I was having issues with a transfer part of the app and together we figured it out. The only thing i would say is the app needs to be more user friendly as the buttons are very hard to find to move to the next options. They don’t stand out to help the user find it easy they are hidden in grayed out areas
