HELOC Rates Rise to 6.779% on Fed Decision Day; Home Equity Loan Rates Ease

HELOC rates rose to 6.779% APR this week and home equity loan rates fell to 6.745%. The Federal Reserve announces its rate decision this afternoon; if it raises rates, borrowers with an open HELOC will most likely see an increase in their rate.

Full home equity loan and HELOC data tracked across all 50 states by MonitorBankRates.com; averages calculated from 6,879 individual rates at 1,746 banks and credit unions.

Average HELOC rates rose 0.030 points to 6.779% APR since our September 10 report, and average home equity loan rates fell 0.038 points to 6.745%. HELOC rates are quoted as the prime rate plus a percentage, and the prime rate has held at 6.75% since December. The Federal Reserve announces its rate decision this afternoon; these figures were collected before it.

HELOC rates rose and home equity loan rates eased

Home equity loan and HELOC rates, national average APR since early April

National average home equity loan and HELOC APRs since early April 2026.

Average APRs from MonitorBankRates.com's nightly collection, the same series this report's figures come from, updated daily.

HELOC rates rose 0.030 points to 6.779% APR this week, after falling 0.062 points in the prior report. HELOC rates are quoted as the prime rate plus a percentage, and the prime rate has held at 6.75% since December. The rate on an open HELOC changes when the prime rate changes.

Home equity loan rates fell 0.038 points to 6.745%, slightly more than the 0.032 points they added a week ago, and the average remains inside the narrow range it has held all summer.

Choosing between a home equity loan and a HELOC

A home equity loan is borrowed as one lump sum at a fixed rate, with the same payment every month until it is paid off. A HELOC is drawn as needed, and its rate changes when the prime rate changes. Our guide to the differences between a home equity loan and a HELOC covers both in detail.

All APRs are national averages of what real licensed institutions are actually offering to borrowers, not promotional teaser rates or rate aggregator estimates. This comparison runs September 10 to September 16, 2026, with figures collected before the Federal Reserve's September 16 announcement. HELOC rates are variable and tied to the prime rate; home equity loan rates are fixed. Source: MonitorBankRates.com.

The answer comes this afternoon

The Federal Reserve announces its rate decision this afternoon. Its benchmark has held at 3.50% to 3.75% since December, and the prime rate has held at 6.75% over the same stretch. When the Fed has raised its benchmark by a quarter point in the past, banks have typically raised the prime rate by a quarter point as well, usually within a day. If that happens today, borrowers with an open HELOC would most likely see an increase in their rate over the following billing cycle or two. If the Fed holds, the prime rate stays at 6.75%. Home equity loan rates are fixed.

Lenders will ask about insurance before they fund

Whatever today brings, one requirement won't change: a lender approving a HELOC or home equity loan wants proof of homeowners insurance on the property for as long as money is owed, so the premium belongs in the same monthly math as any rate on this page. Our MBR Home Insurance Burden Index ranks all 50 states by how heavily those premiums weigh on homeowners, and Texas homeowners can compare carriers in our Texas homeowners insurance guide. If the borrowed money is going into the house itself, get the updated insurance quote in the same sitting.

The bottom line while the Fed meets

Going into this afternoon's announcement, HELOCs average 6.779% and home equity loans 6.745%. Borrowers comparing local offers can line up Texas home equity loan rates against these national averages. These figures average more than a thousand lenders, individual quotes vary widely, and one more quote from your own bank or credit union is worth more than anything on this page.

Data Coverage & Methodology

All APRs in this report are calculated from rates collected directly from institution websites by MonitorBankRates.com's proprietary systems, tracking what real licensed institutions are actually offering to borrowers, not promotional teaser rates or rate aggregator estimates.

As of September 16, 2026, these averages were calculated from 6,879 individual rates verified at 1,746 banks and credit unions; the latest collection ran September 16, 2026. The table below shows the institutions and rates behind each product's average.

ProductInstitutionsRates Verified
HELOCs1,0982,074
Home Equity Loans7602,641
Total (distinct institutions)1,7466,879

Product counts overlap because many institutions offer both a home equity loan and a HELOC; the total row counts each institution once across the full home equity universe. Product rows reflect the institutions and rates that fed each product's most recent verified nightly average.

Financial Health History

Health Care Credit Union’s Texas Ratio fell from 7.17% in Q2 2023 to 3.91% in Q1 2026, so its financial health has improved and is now very strong over the past 12 quarters. Over the same period its Star Rating moved from 5.0 to 5.0 and its Health Grade from A to A+. Lower Texas Ratios are healthier; the green zone below the amber 15% line is where a credit union must stay to qualify for the MBR Verified Healthy badge.

How to read this chart: the two lines move in opposite directions by design. The Texas Ratio (blue) measures trouble, so a rising blue line means more non-performing assets against capital. The Star Rating (green) and Health Grade chips measure strength, so they fall when the Texas Ratio climbs and recover when it drops.
