What is Achieve Loans?

Achieve Loans, formerly Lendage, launched in 2019 and is based in San Mateo, California. It's part of the broader Achieve family of companies, which has a history of serving over 1.5 million customers.

Achieve allows homeowners to use the equity in their home to open a fixed-rate HELOC up to $300,000 they can use for purposes like debt consolidation, home renovation and education. These HELOCs are often used by homeowners to consolidate higher-interest debt into one single monthly payment — often at a lower interest rate. Achieve states that customers can save up to $800 per month on debt payments when they consolidate with a HELOC.

How does Achieve Loans work?

The process of getting a HELOC with Achieve happens in four simple steps:

  1. Consultation: You speak with one of Achieve’s mortgage advisors to get a free assessment of your eligibility for a loan. Pre-qualifying takes two minutes or less.
  2. Compare options: Your advisor gives you a full analysis of your loan options, including loan amount, payments, rate, debt you can consolidate and the total cost to you. The amount you can borrow depends on factors like how much equity you have and your debt-to-income ratio (DTI).
  3. Simple application process: Applying takes just minutes, and it only takes a few days for the Achieve team to gather and verify your information and decide on your application.
  4. Fast closing: Achieve can close on your HELOC and give you access to your line in as little as 10 to 12 days.

Once your HELOC is approved, you have a draw period of 60 months. During this time, you can use the line of credit to consolidate your debt. As you make payments, you’ll have access to subsequent draws.

Achieve doesn’t charge a prepayment penalty, so you can make a payment in excess of the required minimum at any time without extra fees.

Achieve Loans rates

Achieve's HELOC APRs range from 8.75% to 14.75% at the time of publishing. Depending on where you live, there may be fees associated with opening a HELOC:

  • Loan origination fee: 3.5% of the line amount due at closing
  • Underwriting fee: Typically $725 due at closing
  • Third-party fees (title company fees): Depends on the loan amount and state you’re in

You can have your APR reduced by 0.50% if you enroll in automatic payments from a deposit account.

Achieve Loans FAQ

How much can I borrow from Achieve Loans?

Achieve offers HELOCs in amounts from $15,000 up to $300,000.

What are Achieve loan terms?

An Achieve HELOC has a draw period of 60 months (five years) with loan terms of 10 or 15 years.

Who should get an Achieve loan?

Achieve loans are good for borrowers who own their home, have a credit score of at least 600, and have a loan-to-value (LTV) of under 80% and are looking to consolidate balances on multiple high-interest credit cards.

Who services Achieve’s home equity lines of credit?

Achieve HELOCs are offered through Achieve Loans.

Is a HELOC a bad idea right now?

A HELOC can be a good idea for many homeowners who’ve built up enough equity in their home to use as collateral for their loan. However, as with any secured loan, borrowers should exercise caution, since you could lose your home if you default on your payments.

Still have questions?

Is Achieve Loans legit?

Achieve Loans is a legitimate HELOC provider. An Achieve HELOC may be a good choice for those with home equity looking to consolidate high-interest debt on multiple credit cards. You can borrow up to $300,000 and pay it back at a fixed rate over 10 or 15 years. Before taking out a HELOC, however, you need to understand the loan is secured by your home — so you risk losing your home if you don’t meet your repayment obligations. If you decide you’re interested, contact the company for a free consultation with an Achieve mortgage advisor.

    We were looking around and trying different places when my wife found Achieve Loans. The process was exceptionally easy. It was nice that it was all online. We were told what we needed to send in, and we sent those things in. Uploading things was easy as well. There were some clarifications, and we got all that. There was good communication. Even the notary that had to be in person was set up for us.

    There were no hiccups at all and everyone was easy to work with. There wasn't any one thing then have another kind of thing. The rep, Kevin, was great too. He gave us all the information. You hate to feel like you're in a used car sales situation and it didn't feel like that with Achieve, so that was good. Given our situation, the rates were very fair and reasonable. We were happy to have them. It's a service worth checking out. Sometimes there's some hesitancy when it's a newer company or one that's not as well-known as some of the larger institutions. But it was a very straightforward and legitimate process, and I certainly appreciated it.

      The Achieve Loans rep didn't didn't spend a lot of time trying to sell me anything that wasn't there or put extra fluff on it. He was straightforward, and didn't waste a lot of time. That's important to me. He was knowledgeable and knew exactly what the next step would be, depending on where I was in the process. I was comfortable with him knowing my information and my financial information. Also, I like the simplicity of going through the process and their efficiency. I dealt with one person and then just the second person, and not bouncing all over the place from department to department. There were only two people I dealt with, and they were in contact with one another. However, Achieve Loans' system to upload documents was not easy. They admittedly knew that that could be a problem and gave us an alternate way to get forms and documents to them. They were quick to get back to me and say, "Here, do it this way, and don't worry about it."

      Achieve popped up when I was googling online and when I started applying for HELOC with them, they were fast and decent. I put my information on their website, then got the information I needed very quickly. Everything was online. I uploaded documents on there, then they contacted me by email and phone. They made me believe they were legit and the process and took a couple of hours.

      But they asked for my bank account where I was going to make my payment from each month before I even accepted the loan terms or signed any agreement, and that was the one thing that I wasn't excited about. Perhaps it was partly because they would give me a percentage discount on my rate if I have automatic payments come out of my account. So, they wanted to know that I was going to be doing that, so that I could get the best rate. Other than that, working with them was super easy and the rate they gave me was fair. For what I was trying to get and how quick it all happened, I was happy with it.

      I had some debt and some home repairs that I needed to do, and Achieve Home Loans was the only one that was able to get me a loan. The process took two to three months, but I switched jobs during the middle of all that so a lot of that was on me. But they were quick about it. I was going through a debt consolidation program and they had to use the loan to pay off any outstanding debt I had before they released any money to me. We had an issue with one of them and that took a little while because they wouldn't give us an agreement letter. But the reps at Achieve were all great. Even with the issues I had on my end, they helped me get past it so we could get the loan approved. It was also a very good rate, and it was pretty fair for the deal for the way the loan was set up. I highly recommend Achieve Home Loans.

      Originally, I was trying to go through SoFi, then it referred me to Achieve. I spoke with Richard, a gentleman at Achieve, and really liked what he had to say, so I decided to go with them. Richard had timely responses and he explained things very well. The whole process from start to finish took three weeks and that ended up working out well. It met and exceeded expectations. The process and the system interface were very easy as well. It made me comfortable to be able to understand what was going on, and for what I needed, the rate worked out. I'd tell people that they should definitely give somebody a shout and hear what they have to offer, and that Achieve helped me out a lot. They potentially could help out others as well.

I was exploring refinancing, and after Achieve received a request from an aggregator, they reached out to me on email. The loan process was relatively simple and communication was smooth. They won in the end. They were proactive, and I enjoyed that we could communicate over text. It was straightforward.

      I have one open issue with Achieve, so it's not all roses, but I would characterize them as efficient. They were able to meet our requirements too. These loans are relatively all the same at this point. So, we want to have someone who's efficient and someone who's able to be responsive in communication. People should look at them. They'll get what they're looking for.

      Everything was handled electronically with Achieve Loans and the process was very easy. I didn't have to do all that much and the rep who assisted me was very good. They asked for paperwork and I submitted the paperwork. But because I had some things going on, it took longer than it should have and that was my fault. It could have been done in three or four weeks. Other than that, the interest rate was a little high. But I don't get to dictate that end of the deal.

      I had a good experience with Achieve. At the time, I had something from my credit report that my bank wasn't gonna accept, and the Achieve home loan process was just simpler. The application process took about a week. There was someone that had my same name and date of birth.

      I am going on my second month with Achieve. They had the lowest rate and their appraiser appraised my home at a higher value than the other competitors. I got in contact with one guy who takes all the information then the loan officer who completed the loan. It was all done with three phone calls, a few texts, and everything else through their portal online. It was super simple and they gave exactly what they promised in a quick amount of time. Everything was super easy.

      I'd recommend Achieve, but I would tell people to be careful. Go through the process. Make sure you ask them questions. I didn't. They would service it by somebody else. Be careful with that. You roll over easy. You know what you're doing with the other person. It worked me good. They paid three cards off, and gave me some spending money, not as much as I wanted, but my credit score’s got a little higher for what I want. I'll probably pay Achieve off here in the future.

      The lending process was smooth until Achieve Loans sold it to somebody else to maintain it. That was when I haven't been on Achieve since, because I couldn't find out how to get on. There are verification codes. Old people don't know how to get on there. I couldn't even get online to see. I had to call Achieve to ask them about Shellpoint. I like to be on online and check my balance. If I wanna pay more, I can. I like to know when it's due, so I can rotate my money into it. However, I haven't been able to get online. I'm very upset. I’m just waiting for Achieve to take their money out, whenever the date we said, until I can get back on. It's very frustrating for us old people because we're not born computer literate. I wanna get an app for it so I can just put myself on it every month and see what's going on.

      After I did the loan and Achieve sold it, and after I okayed and they okayed the loan and did all that, on a scale of 1 to 10, it’s a 7 to try to get ahold of them. The number has changed or discontinued. I couldn't find a person to help me originate the loan. "We got you. We signed you up. And now we’re gone.” The rep was okay. He helped me through it. At the end, I had a couple other people who needed some more information. But that process went smoothly. He signed me up, done. But when I went to Shellpoint, they called me, saying, “We need your flood insurance paid.” I said, “If Achieve took my loan, I sent Achieve all those papers, or they wouldn't approve my loan.” I had to straighten her out. She said, “Okay. You all caught up now.” There's some kind of miscommunication somewhere between them when you close a loan. I don't know what it is.

      Achieve Loans was the only one that offered the amount that I was looking for. The process of getting the loan was a bit shaky though. The loan officer was great. There were just too many hands in the mix. It seemed like I got passed on from one person to the next, which I understand. It was like a different process, but it's still too many people to try to keep up with. Other than that, the rate and terms were good, especially for what my score was at the time.

      I'd been trying to get home equity loan for a while and I struggled to do that with Navy Federal. I got a little pamphlet in the mail from Achieve, then I called them. The process was easy and it took two weeks. didn't really have any question or concerns and they pretty much worded everything straightforward, so I didn't really have any questions. I had tried to go through the process with my real bank and they drug out for six months. So, I had already known all the ins and outs of it,

      I had all my ducks in a row, and I had everything ready and waiting. Achieve made it very simple. It was literally one phone call, then upload some stuff, three emails, and next thing I know, money was in the bank. So, my cards were paid off. If you're in a tight spot, give them a chance and hear them out. So far, it's worked out really good for me.
