What is a line of credit?
A line of credit is a revolving borrowing solution that allows customers the flexibility and convenience of accessing funds to meet their diverse borrowing needs, typically at a lower interest rate. Whether you’re renovating your home or consolidating debt a line of credit allows you to withdraw funds up to the credit limit, and pay down at your convenience, provided monthly minimum payments are made. With a line of credit, you don’t need to reapply as credit is available again once balance is paid.
