Use Your Home’s Value to Finance Almost Anything
As a homeowner, you take great pride in your home—and for a good reason! You worked hard to find the perfect home for you and your family, saved the down payment you needed, and found a lender with reasonable mortgage rates to purchase it.
Now you’re faced with needing funds for a considerable expense—like home renovations or helping your child with college tuition—and wondering if you can use your home’s value as collateral to get the money you need.
Don’t turn to banks for personal loans or credit card companies that charge exorbitant fees and interest rates for the same loan amount you could get with Lanco FCU’s products and services.
Lanco Federal Credit Union offers home equity lines of credit—or HELOC—and loans for qualified homeowners who want either open-ended borrowing for ongoing use (HELOC) or a lump sum of money (home equity loan).
We understand how important it is that you get the money you need. Our current home equity loan and HELOC rates in PA are some of the lowest rates you’ll find! Use your funds to:
- Transform your space
- Pay off credit cards
- Consolidate debt
- Upgrade appliances
- Cover tuition expenses
- Pay for a wedding

Home Equity Lines of Credit (HELOC)
While a home equity loan provides a lump sum of money to a homeowner, a line of credit offers a source of funds to draw on when you need it. In other words, a HELOC is a variable-rate loan that provides open-ended borrowing for ongoing use.
HELOCs can be approved for almost any purpose and are great for educational expenses, home improvement projects, or to meet other continuous borrowing needs. You can take advances from your line of credit quickly and conveniently by transferring funds with online banking, mobile banking, Gabby telephone banking, or by writing a check.

*LTV is the loan to value ratio. The option to borrow up to 90% LTV may be available for borrowers with a credit score of 700 or higher. To calculate your available equity, multiply your home’s value by the LTV percent, then subtract your current mortgage balance. For example: Value of Home [ $200,000 ] x 80% LTV [ 0.80 ] = [ $160,000 ] [ $160,000 ] – Current Mortgage Balance [ $100,000 ] = Available Equity [ $60,000 ]
