Make your home value work for you with a Home Equity Loan

Borrow against the equity in your home to finance home improvements, debt consolidation, investments, major expenses and more.

Things you should know:

Equity in your home is the current market value minus any outstanding loans you may have with us or any other financial institutions on the property.
The equity in your home increases as you pay down your mortgage and as the market value of your home increases.
To determine the equity in your home you will need to obtain an appraisal report to confirm its market value. This report will be requested by CIBC FirstCaribbean at a cost to you. For a limited time only, CIBC FirstCaribbean will contribute up to US$500 or the local equivalent to your valuation cost once your home equity loan is approved and disbursed. See terms and conditions for more details.

	It's easy to access home equity funds! Here's an example to show you how it works:
	Property Appraised Value: $200,000 80% of value: $160,000 Mortgage balance: $110,000	Difference between 80% value and your mortgage balance= $50,000 You can borrow up to $50,000

There are differences you will need to understand so you can select the right option for you.
