At People Driven Credit Union, our Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) provides you with flexible and affordable access to funds for renovations that reduce energy consumption and enhance comfort.

Energy-Saving Tips and How to Use a HELOC to Finance Green Home Improvements

Whether you’re updating insulation, replacing windows, or adding solar panels, our Michigan home equity line of credit financing makes it easier to take on projects that make a difference.

Why Use a HELOC for Energy-Efficient Renovations?

A HELOC is a revolving credit line secured by the equity in your home. It allows you to borrow as needed and only pay interest on what you use. That makes it ideal for multi-stage or long-term home improvements.

  • Flexible access to funds over time
  • Lower rates than most credit cards or personal loans
  • Potential tax benefits when used for qualifying home upgrades (consult your tax advisor)
