Home Equity Loans

At First Eagle, we offer variable rate Home Equity Lines of Credit. It's a quick and easy way to obtain funds for any reason. Use this line to pay off high rate credit cards or for home improvement.

Applying for a Home Equity Loan is easy. Simply fill out the Consumer Loan Application and submit it along with copies of one month paycheck stubs for both the Applicant and the Co-Applicant. If the Applicant or Co-Applicant is self employed, also submit copies of the most recent 2-years personal and business tax returns. For loans over $200,000 submit a First Eagle Bank Personal Financial Statement and copies of the most recent 2-years tax returns.

Please contact Julianna Carpenter (jcarpenter@febank.com or 630-893-2081) to obtain a copy of the Consumer Loan Application and for more information on what documents you will need to apply.
