A loan for your ongoing borrowing needs. You are approved for a pre-set limit, and you borrow only the amount you need, when you need it. A line of credit opening may help with covering the cost of home improvement projects or help you with family expenses such as medical and dental bills, a child’s education, or a senior family member’s care. You only pay interest on the amount you borrow, and you can pay back any amount as long as you make the minimum monthly payment. Minimum payments may be a combination of interest and principal or interest only. Once you pay off your balance you can reuse the available credit without re-applying.

If you have at least 35% equity in your home, you could qualify for a Home Equity Line of Credit. Home equity is the difference between the value of your home and the unpaid balance of your home’s mortgage. These are very flexible loans which can be used for whatever you want: loans for home improvement, education expenses, investment opportunities or debt consolidation. Your home’s equity increases every time you pay down your mortgage and thus the value of your home increases. By using your home as collateral, you may qualify for a lower interest rate and a larger credit limit.
If you need some help paying for the rising cost of obtaining a post-secondary education, then BCU Financial can help. The BCU Financial Student Line of Credit allows a university or college student to borrow up to a maximum of $5,000 per year to cover the cost of tuition, books or living expenses. Unlike a personal loan, having a loan for a student one pays only the interest on the amount they withdraw. To qualify, you must be enrolled in a full-time program at an accredited college or university with Canadian citizenship or landed immigrant status.
