Browse Common Questions

  • There are no PSECU application fees for equity loans or lines of credit, but third-party fees may be charged. For example, there may be third-party notary fees since PSECU requires the execution of the loan in front of a notary public. Late fees may apply.

  • You may refinance your loan or line of credit by applying online. If you're refinancing your home equity loan or line of credit with a new one, you're required to borrow an additional $5,000 above your current equity loan balance.

  • Accessing your available cash is easy! Simply log into your account and transfer money from your line of credit into your checking or Regular savings share.

  • Great news! You can use your home equity for anything! Home renovations are a common use of equity funds, but your home’s equity could help to pay for education expenses, debt consolidation, medical bills, emergency funds, and more. You can even use it to pay off a home equity loan or mortgage from another financial institution. The possibilities are endless.
