HELOCs Just Got Smarter: Co-Borrowers & Built-In Debt Consolidation Now Available

Apr 30, 2026

We’ve rolled out powerful new enhancements to our HELOC platform designed to give borrowers more flexibility, stronger qualification options, and smarter ways to leverage their home equity

What’s New in Our HELOC Program?

1. Co-Borrowers Are Now Supported

This is a major upgrade. Borrowers can now apply with a co-borrower. Whether it’s a spouse, partner, or family member, adding a co-borrower can now help turn borderline files into approved deals.

  • Stronger income qualification
  • Improved debt-to-income ratios
  • Higher approval odds
  • More purchasing and borrowing power

2. Built-In Debt Consolidation

We’ve taken HELOC functionality to the next level by integrating debt consolidation directly into the loan process. All at closing, rolled into one lower monthly payment backed by home equity. By reducing monthly obligations, borrowers can now qualify at higher DTIs (up to 50%), enabling more deals.

  • Pay off high-interest credit cards
  • Consolidate personal loans
  • Eliminate multiple monthly payments
