Understanding the HELOC Calculator Fields
To give you an accurate estimate of your available credit, the UCCU HELOC Calculator uses three key inputs:
- Appraised Value: This is the current market value of your home, often determined by a professional appraisal or real estate assessment.
- Outstanding Home Loans: The total amount you still owe on your mortgage and any other loans secured by your home.
- Loan-to-Value (LTV) Ratio: This percentage reflects the relationship between your home’s value and the amount you owe. Most lenders use LTV to determine how much equity you can borrow against, with lower LTV ratios often qualifying for better terms.

What is a HELOC?
A Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) is a revolving line of credit that allows you to borrow against the equity in your home. It functions similarly to a credit card, giving you the flexibility to access funds as needed, up to your approved limit.
What is Loan-to-Value (LTV), and why is it important?
LTV is the ratio of your outstanding home loans to your home’s appraised value. For example, if your home is valued at $400,000 and you owe $200,000, your LTV is 50%. A lower LTV generally means you have more equity available and may qualify for better terms.
Will the calculator tell me exactly how much I can borrow?
The HELOC Calculator provides an estimate for informational purposes. The actual loan amount will depend on your creditworthiness, lender requirements, and final appraisal results. To determine your exact eligibility, start an application
