Home Trust Equityline VISA Card : Product Information

The Home Trust Equityline VISA Card combines the advantages of a line of credit with the convenience of a credit card and all the benefits of Gold!


Flexibility
  • Use up to 85% of the equity in your home to secure a credit limit of $10,000 to $250,0001.
  • Use only what you need, when you need it, up to your available credit limit.
  • Use it for consolidating higher-interest debt, making home improvements, helping with business start-up
    or operating costs, or even for managing unexpected or everyday purchases - it's entirely up to you.
  • Monthly payments as low as 1% or 1.5% of your outstanding balance or $10, whichever is greater2.
  • Make additional payments at any time without penalty
Saves You Money
  • Competitive interest rates of 7.99%, 9.99% or 11.99%2.
  • You only pay the interest on the credit you have used.
  • Replace high interest bills with one lower monthly payment.
  • No annual fees - just a one-time account set-up fee of 2% of the approved credit limit and a legal fee of
    approximately $350 to $500 (varies by province) will be charged to your VISA account3.
Convenience
  • Apply only once - and it is set up to use when you need it.
  • Access your credit by writing a convenience cheque, using any ATM with a VISA logo, or using your VISA card.
  • Accepted in approximately 600,000 locations across Canada, in more than 150 countries with access to
    more than 950,000 Automated Teller Machines worldwide.
