I thought LZ talked about HELOC. should be very close to open variable interest rate mortgage. Otherwise unsecured loan has nothing to do with prime rate, all depends on your credit score.LOC is a kind of unssecured loan. The bank assumes much higher risk in it than mortgage. Generally, there is no way you can get prime+1%.
The best I have ever been offered was 7%. Now I know someone got 10%.
