What is a no-appraisal HELOC?
For most lines up to $400,000, your home's value comes from an automated valuation instead of an appraiser visit. No scheduling, no one walking through your house.
If an automated value isn't available, a quick exterior-only check is used instead.

No-appraisal HELOC questions
Will I need an appraisal?
Usually not for lines up to $400,000. If an automated value isn't available, a quick exterior-only check is used.
What if my home is worth more than the estimate?
Tell us the higher value. We'll re-run your offer and confirm it with an appraisal.
Will checking hurt my credit?
No. Seeing your numbers takes no credit pull. A soft pull comes only when you apply.
What does it cost to close?
Nothing out of pocket. A one-time fee of 1.9% to 4.9% comes out of the line, title and signing are covered, and recording costs go into a 12-month 0% plan. No annual fee.
Where is it available?
46 states and DC. Not yet in California, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Nevada or New York.
