Regions Home Equity Loan (HELOAN): what $50,000 costs by the day you sell

In our illustration, take $50,000 from a $500,000 home through Regions Bank and sell in year 10: the model produces $28,732 more than you received, an annualized modeled cost of 7.0%. Sold in year 5 the cost is $15,774.

That uses the lowest APR the page publishes, 6.75%, held flat, which is an advertised minimum.

How that is worked out

home value today = $500,000; cash taken = $50,000 (10% of value) home value in year N = $500,000 x 1.03^N (3% a year, every product) HEI, share of value = multiplier x 10% x home value in year N HEI, principal + share = $50,000 + share x (value in year N - adjusted starting value) HEI cap = $50,000 x (1 + cap/12)^(12N) where the provider publishes a cap HELOC illustration = interest-only using the lowest published APR as a rate proxy, then amortized home equity loan example = amortized using the lowest published APR as a rate proxy total cost at sale (N) = payments made + balance or payoff owed at sale - $50,000 + upfront fees annualized cost = the yearly rate that turns the cash received into everything paid back

Every rate is the lowest the provider publishes, so where a page says “as low as” the figure is an illustrative starting scenario. An “up to” fee is modeled at its stated maximum; the actual fee may be lower. APR is used as a proxy for the payment rate when no separate note rate is published. Variable rates are held flat. Eligibility, unpublished charges, taxes and insurance are excluded. These figures are neither quotes nor guaranteed lower bounds. Read the method.
