Using the equity in your home gives you features you don't always get with Credit Cards or Auto Loans, such as no balance transfer fees and larger lines of credit. In addition, the interest you pay may be tax deductible.†
Sovereign's FlexLock Home Equity Line of Credit allows you the option to lock in all or part of your credit line balance at a fixed rate, with a with a monthly payment of principal and interest. The amount of your credit line that you don't convert to a fixed rate will remain available to use like a traditional line of credit, at a low, variable rate.
In either case, you'll only pay interest on the amount of money you actually use. For more information, contact a Sovereign Loan Representative at 877-4-SOV-LOAN (877-476-8562).
