The Home Equity Program is a unique neighborhood stabilization program from the State of Illinois, developed to insure property values for an extended time. The Home Equity Program is financed by a special levy on single through six-unit residential properties within the Home Equity District. We are governed by the State of Illinois, Home Equity Assurance Act.


Our programs help Chicago homeowners protect and invest into their biggest asset - their home. If we can help each Chicago home one-by-one collectively we can continue to uplift our community together.

The Southwest Home Equity Assurance Program offers two benefits. 


The first benefit is that we protect the property value of your home, if you decide to sell in the future. 


The second benefit we provide is through a partnership with Marquette and Hoyne Bank. We offer a Home Improvement Loan Program - an innovative benefit exclusively for members. Members are eligible to apply for special zero-to low-interest loans to repair or remodel their homes. A home inspection is required within 6 months of closing on your loan. 


Finally, existing members are always encouraged to update their appraisal. By submitting receipts of $5,000 worth of home improvements, members can receive 50% off their next appraisal.
