How Texas homestead rules shape your El Paso HELOC
A HELOC on the home you live in is governed by Texas Constitution Article XVI, §50(a)(6). Your first mortgage plus the HELOC can't exceed 80% of your home's value, and the loan can't close until at least 12 days after you apply or receive the required Texas home equity notice, whichever is later.
After closing, there's a 3-day rescission period before funds are released. That 12 + 3 day timeline is why homestead HELOCs in El Paso typically close in 12–15 days. Read the full Texas HELOC rules guide.
How You Qualify
El Paso HELOC Requirements
To qualify for a HELOC on your El Paso home, you'll need a 600+ credit score, enough equity to stay at or under 80% combined loan-to-value, and verifiable income.
The home must be in your personal name (not an LLC or trust), and each owner and owner's spouse must consent to the lien under Texas law. Checking your rate uses a soft credit pull.
