Real Equity Home Loan
The Real Equity Home Loan is a variable rate line of credit, which is secured against your home. It gives you direct access to the equity in your home so you can use it to build wealth.
It combines your loan and everyday account into one convenient package so you can benefit from every dollar you leave in your account. This can help reduce the balance of your loan, which means you may pay your loan off faster and save money in interest.
