Combined Loan-to-Value Ratio: CLTV is a term used by lenders to represent the total amount of loans compared to the value of the property securing the loan. The CLTV includes the total amount from all loans borrowed divided by the total value of the property. For example, if a property owner takes out 2 separate $20,000 loans on a property worth $100,000, the CLTV would be calculated as ($20,000 + $20,000)/$100,000, or more simply, $40,000/$100,000 or 40%.

Home Equity Lines of Credit are variable-rate loans. Rates are as low as 4.250% APR and are based on an evaluation of credit history, CLTV (combined loan-to-value) ratio, loan amount and occupancy, so your rate may differ. The plan has a maximum APR of 18%. For loan amounts of up to $250,000, closing costs that members must pay typically range between $300 and $2,000. Members may borrow against their available credit line for a period of 20 years, after which any existing balance must be paid in full within the following 20 years. Rates are subject to change—information provided does not constitute a loan commitment.

Home Equity Lines of Credit are available for primary residences and second homes. Second-home loans and all loans for amounts less than $25,000 require a 1.00% increase in the interest rate and may be subject to other restrictions. You must carry homeowners insurance on the property that secures this plan. Home Equity Lines of Credit are not available in Texas.
