Amounts up to $50,000

If you’re a U.S. Bank client, you can apply for $1,000 up to $50,000 (non-clients may be able to borrow up to $25,000). If approved, you’ll pay the same amount with a fixed APR every month for the length of your term.1 There are no origination fees and no prepayment penalties as you pay off the loan.

No collateral required

A personal loan for home improvement doesn’t require your home or car as collateral, so you won’t have to deal with inspections or appraisals.2 It may be a good option if you don’t qualify for a home equity loan or line of credit.

Credit considerations

We consider your credit score, debt-to-income ratio, credit history and other factors when making approval decisions. The final loan amount, APR and estimated monthly payment may vary based on your credit score and other credit qualifiers.

How to get a personal loan for home improvement

Get quick access to funds with our easy and secure online application process. Applying for a home improvement personal loan only takes a few minutes. Loans are issued based on creditworthiness.
 

Step 1: Check your rate.

We’ll ask a few questions about you to do a soft credit check, which won’t affect your credit score.

Step 2: Apply.

When you’re ready to apply, you’ll need:

  • Social Security number (SSN)
  • Home address and employment information

You can apply with another person. If you apply with a joint applicant, their income and credit background are also considered and may affect your interest rate or loan amount.

Once you submit your application U.S. Bank will request a full credit report, which may affect your credit score.

Typically we’ll notify you with your loan approval status in less than a minute.

Step 3: Close on your loan.

If your loan is approved and you’re a U.S. Bank personal checking or savings client, you may close your loan online. If you don’t have a U.S. Bank personal checking or savings account, you may need to visit a U.S. Bank branch to close your loan.
