Expert Take

LoanDepot can be a good choice for homeowners in almost any state who want to access up to 90% of their home value. You can choose between variable-rate HELOCs and fixed-rate home equity loans. However, its high minimum withdrawal requirement is a problem.

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • LoanDepot offers both HELOCs and home equity loans.
  • You might not need to pay for an appraisal because the lender usually uses a computer system to figure out your home value.
  • LoanDepot HELOCs and home equity loans let you access up to 90% of the equity in your home.

Cons

  • Homeowners may find the $35,000 minimum loan amount too high.
  • You must withdraw most, if not all, of your HELOC credit line early on.
  • Both home equity loans and HELOCs may not be available in all states.

Figure HELOC - 10 Year

Figure
• Online Lender
APR
6.40%
Fixed
Loan Range
$15,000 - $400,000
Term
Figure is a great choice if you want a fast loan process with no in-person meetings. The best thing about Figure is speed - you can pre-qualify in five minutes and get your money in as little as five business days. Figure rates are lower than average, and you can save more by setting up automatic payments or joining certain credit unions. However, you will pay a big origination fee, and the HELOC works more like a regular home equity loan with a fixed rate and one large withdrawal.
