5/5/Flex home equity loan

Our new 5/5/Flex home equity loan gives you the certainty and predictability of a fixed-rate loan, with the potential savings of an adjustable. With this loan, you have a fixed interest rate for the first 5 years of the loan, then it adjusts every 5 years through the term of the loan. The initial rate is lower than a 10-, 15- or 20-year home equity loan, and you have peace of mind knowing your payment won’t change for quite a while. As with all ENY FCU home equity loans and lines of credit, there are no closing costs or fees, no prepayment penalties, and most loans close in just 10 days. Click here to apply!
