A no annual fee HELOC from WaFd Bank is often more affordable than using credit cards or other loans.

HELOCs are available for primary, second home and investment properties, including jumbo HELOCs up to $700,000. Apply online, where you can securely upload your documents and receive status updates in our secure portal. Get started with a versatile HELOC today.

Frequently Asked Questions

See more FAQs

HELOC interest payments may be tax deductible based on specific income qualifications and whether you occupy the home as a primary residence, 2nd home, or use it as an investment property. Please consult your tax professional for your specific situation.

The amount of equity needed for a HELOC will depend on a number of factors such as whether you have an existing mortgage that will or will not be paid off when you apply for your HELOC and whether you have any other existing liens on your home. In general, lenders use a calculation called a loan to value (“LTV”) that allows a borrower to use 80% of the value of their property for a HELOC and any other existing mortgages that you owe on your home. The LTV will also vary according to your individual credit and finances and whether you occupy the subject property as your primary residence, 2nd home or use it as an investment property. Contact your local WaFd loan officer to get specific details for your individual situation.

A HELOC can be a 2nd mortgage if you have an existing 1st mortgage that will not be paid off by your HELOC. Contact your local WaFd loan officer to see if your financing request qualifies for our no cost HELOC.

* To qualify for the maximum $600 discount, before closing documents are prepared you must (1) have or open the WaFd checking account, (2) register for EZ-Pay from the new checking account, and (3) sign up for direct deposit of at least one form of a monthly recurring source of income.
