BROOKLINE, MA--(Marketwire - Sep 24, 2012) - With a current Home Equity Line of Credit being offered for as low as 2.99% Annual Percentage Rate (APR)*, Brookline Bank continues its focus on providing Greater Boston homeowners with a range of home equity financing solutions, including home equity lines of credit and home equity loans.
To make this low 2.99% APR home equity line of credit (HELOC) offer more accessible to homeowners, the bank has launched Brookline BankHomeEquity.com -- an online destination for web, mobile and tablet devices. Visitors to BrooklineBankHomeEquity.com will find Brookline Bank's best home equity credit line rate and a link to its short, online pre-application form where homeowners can get a head start on the application process.
Generally speaking, a home equity line of credit allows customers to get a variable rate and withdraw funds only when needed, while a home equity loan provides one lump sum and a fixed rate of payment. On its main website BrooklineBank.com, Brookline Bank encourages homeowners to research the different features and benefits of home equity lines of credit and home equity loans, to make sure their financing choice best matches their borrowing needs and repayment preferences.
A home equity line of credit from Brookline Bank offers a variable APR currently as low as Prime minus .26%, no set draw or repayment period, no expiration date, and no application fees, points or closing costs. Brookline Bank's home equity loan is available in 5-year and 10-year terms, and has no application fees, points or closing costs.**

* The Annual Percentage Rate (APR) may vary monthly and will be based on the Prime Rate as listed in The Wall Street Journal (Prime) plus a margin. The APR will not be less than 2.99% APR or more than 18% APR. As of 9/1/12 the Prime Rate is 3.25%. The APR will also depend on the amount of the credit line that we approve. For lines of $100,000 to $500,000, the APR will be Prime -.26%, currently 2.99% APR. For lines of $50,000 to $99,999, the APR will be Prime +.74%, currently 3.99% APR. For lines of $10,000 to $49,999, the APR will be Prime +1.10%, currently 4.35% APR. All APRs reflect a .26% Autopay discount. In some instances, the APR calculation used could result in a fully indexed APR below the minimum APR of 2.99%. If this occurs, your APR will not be less than 2.99%. Property hazard insurance required. No closing costs except for cooperatives and properties held in a trust. $40 Annual Fee is waived for first year. Early termination of $350 fee applies. Other terms and conditions and restrictions apply. Offer subject to change without notice.
** As of 9/1/12, a 3.99% APR is available for a 5-year loan with a minimum $50,000 borrowed amount. A $50,000 loan at 3.99% APR for 5 years requires 60 monthly payments of $920.50, an $18.41 payment per $1,000 borrowed. As of 9/1/12, a 5.99% APR is available for a 10-year loan with $10,000-$49,999 borrowed amount. A $25,000 loan at 5.99% APR for 10 years requires 120 monthly payments of $277.50, an $11.10 payment per $1,000 borrowed. If your loan is a first lien loan, these payment examples do not include taxes or insurance and therefore your payments will be greater. Application fee and closing costs may apply for cooperative units and properties held in a trust.

BURLINGTON, VT- Shark Communications, an integrated branding and digital marketing agency based in Burlington, Vermont, has launched a new weekly mobile web marketing initiative for Alberstons grocery stores based in Boise, Idaho. Delivered through Shark's QR Code and mobile web marketing service, Mobi2Go.net the Albertsons' program integrates QR codes placed strategically in-store and on marketing communications that link to a mobile video.
In a recent Progressive Tech Grocer article describing Albertsons emerging digital and social media marketing strategies, it was noted: "Online video is leveraged in a unique in-store program for the current summer grilling season, which enables shoppers to scan a QR code using their smartphones to get access to recipes with tips on grilling Albertsons’ Steakhouse Choice cuts of meat. Each Albertsons meat department displays a Steakhouse Choice poster with a QR code that leads directly to the Albertsons Market mobile site. From there, users can watch the latest grilling video, view a recipe and share the recipe via e-mail with friends. Customers can also connect to the company’s Facebook page to “like” the page and view more Steakhouse Choice recipes and videos. In addition to the mobile site and Facebook page, all of the videos can be found on Albertsons Market’s YouTube channel."
ALBERTSONS is part of the SUPERVALU® family of grocery stores. ALBERTSONS was founded in 1939 and currently operates 445 Albertsons and Lucky® supermarkets in Southern California, Southern Nevada, Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming.
