What makes Cape & Coast Bank home equity loans different?
We make all lending decisions locally. This means faster approvals, more flexible terms, and personalized service from people who understand your community’s unique property market.
How much equity can I access in my property?
Most customers can borrow up to 80% of their home’s value minus any existing mortgage balance. For example, if your home is worth $500,000 and you owe $200,000, you might qualify for up to $200,000.
What’s the difference between a HELOC and home equity loan?
