CHIP stands for Canadian Home Income Plan. It is a long-term financing solution offered by HomeEquity Bank — a federally regulated Canadian bank — that may allow qualifying homeowners to access up to 55% of their home's appraised value as tax-free cash, depending on their borrower profile. No required monthly payments. Borrowers retain ownership and title of the home.
