  2. At the time of closing, retail and Plus customers can request a purchase money advance to acquire a primary residence as part of their HELOC fixed rate options. The purchase money advance requires exercising a fixed rate option for a 30-year repayment at a fixed rate. All, or any portion of the balance above $5,000 can be converted to a fixed rate/fixed term. Conversions are limited to three fixed rate options during the draw period; there is a $50 fee for each option. Once converted, that balance will remain at that fixed rate for the remainder of the term selected and cannot be selected for conversion again. Fixed rates available for selection vary based on the term chosen for repayment, discount received for auto debit, amount converted, Loan-to-Value (LTV) and credit history.
