7 Monitoring Services. The Monitoring Services are optional and are not available with all accounts. Enrollment requires agreement to the Services Terms & Conditions, which include important legal terms that a customer should read carefully before deciding whether to enroll.
8 Mortgage Relationship Discount. Mortgage Insurance may be required for loans that have a less than 20% down payment which will increase the APR and result in a higher loan payment. Interest rates and fees are subject to change without notice. Huntington's mortgage division offers many different mortgage products; your APR may vary depending on the product for which you apply. All loans are subject to loan application and credit approval and receipt of a property appraisal demonstrating sufficient value. To be eligible for the Rate Discount, you must have or open a Huntington Platinum Perks Checking, SmartInvest Checking, or Private Client Account (these accounts are a "qualifying checking account,") and have at least $25,000 in qualifying relationship balances ("qualifying balances"). Mortgage Relationship Discounts vary based on the (1) type of mortgage product the customer has applied for, and (2) the customer’s Mortgage Relationship Balance held in any eligible account, which include all Huntington consumer deposit accounts (checking, money market, savings, certificates of deposit (CDs), and individual retirement accounts (IRAs) on which you are an owner), and all Huntington consumer investments (IRA and non-IRA) held in brokerages, trusts, or managed money accounts. Existing annuities with a cash value account balance opened by Huntington Financial Advisors®, are also eligible accounts, however, annuity accounts opened on or after the mortgage loan application date are excluded from the Mortgage Relationship Balance. Investment, trust and annuity account balances will be assessed based on the account balances that are periodically reported to Huntington systems by a variety of third-party sources. Other requirements include an open Huntington Platinum Perks Checking, SmartInvest Checking or Private Client Account checking account and a signed agreement at the time of closing for Huntington to automatically draw monthly mortgage payments from any Huntington checking account. The Mortgage Relationship Balance amount(s) must be on deposit at Huntington at least one (1) business day prior to the issuance of the final Mortgage Closing Disclosure prior to the loan closing in order to receive this benefit, and will not include any funds needed for down payment on the mortgage transaction. Huntington's Mortgage Relationship Discounts are subject to change without notice. Program eligibility is subject to account and balance validation.
9 The Home Equity Line of Credit Relationship Discount. The "Rate Discount" consists of preferred Annual Percentage Rates and related preferred variable rate margins applied to your Home Equity Line of Credit (which is also referred to as a personal credit line or “PCL”). To be eligible for the Rate Discount, you must have or open a Huntington Platinum Perks Checking, SmartInvest Checking or Private Client Account (these accounts are a "qualifying checking account,") and have at least $25,000 in qualifying relationship balances (“qualifying balances”). Qualifying balances include money that is on deposit in all Huntington consumer deposit accounts (checking, money market, savings, certificate of deposit (CDs), and individual retirement accounts (IRAs)), on which you are an owner; and all Huntington Consumer investments (IRA and non-IRA) held in brokerage, trust, or managed money accounts. Existing annuities with a cash value account balance opened by Huntington Financial Advisors® are also qualified balances, however, annuity accounts opened on or after the HELOC application date are excluded from the HELOC qualifying balances. Investment, trust and annuity account balances will be assessed based on their respective balances that are periodically reported to Huntington systems by a variety of third-party sources. Your specific Rate Discount will depend on the total amount of qualifying balances that correspond to our balance requirement discount rate tier grid. Ask a banker for details. If you do qualify for a Rate Discount, you will then also qualify for an Annual Fee Waiver ($60, $50 in MN) during the first year your HELOC is open and during the subsequent years over the PCL Draw and Repayment Periods, as applicable, for as long as you maintain your qualifying checking account in good standing with us. If, at any point during the PCL Draw Period or Repayment Period ("Period(s)"), you close your checking account or the account is closed by us for any reason, your Annual Fee may be reinstated for the following year and for each subsequent year during those Periods, as applicable. Rate Discount eligibility is subject to account and balance validation when Huntington prepares your PCL agreement for your signature.
Huntington HELOC is subject to credit application and approval. The Rate Discount and Annual Fee Waiver apply only to new HELOC customers which are defined as customers without an existing Huntington HELOC on the subject property within the last 180 days of closing on the new one. APRs range from 2.96% to 17.24%. Rates on the HELOC are variable based on Prime plus or minus a margin and can change monthly but will never be higher than 18.00% APR. The margin is based on your home’s loan-to-value ratio, lien position, owner occupancy status, applicant’s credit history, and the amount of the credit line. "Prime" and "Prime Rate" mean the “Bank Prime Loan” rate published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System in its statistical release H.15 (510) entitled "Selected Interest Rates." Use of the word "Prime" does not mean that the rate is the best or lowest rate offered by any lender. Current Prime Rate is 7.50% as of December 19, 2024. Rates may change at any time. Borrower-paid title insurance may be required on loan amounts greater than $750,000. Mail-away Fees, which also include a notary fee, range from $125 to $375 and will apply when closing is facilitated by a third party on Huntington’s behalf. In this instance, a $25 courier fee will also apply. Insurance must be carried on the real property securing the account, and flood insurance is required on buildings located in a special flood hazard area. There is a Draw Period for 10 years after the account is opened during which advances and purchases may be made, and during which reductions to principal are not required (unless credit limit has been exceeded), followed by a 20-year Repayment Period during which the minimum monthly payments amortize the outstanding balance on the line at the end of the Draw Period. Making only the minimum payment during the first 10 years will not reduce the principal balance on the account.
