Combination Loan

What is it

A first mortgage and a home equity loan for up to 100% of your property's value, all in a single application.

Who it's for

Footnote 1This chart shows two example loan transactions. The example assumes no origination fees or closing costs. The terms of your loans may differ and actual savings may vary. The estimated savings is based on the difference between monthly principal and interest payments calculated over 10 years or 120 months. Interest deductions based on the higher monthly payment and annual percentage rate (APR) of the 90% first mortgage loan were not used when considering the estimated savings. Consult your tax advisor on deductibility of interest. Credit is subject to approval. Normal credit standards apply. Certain restrictions may apply. Programs, rates, terms and conditions are subject to change without notice. Flood and/or property insurance may be required.
