Disclosures

1.
  • APR = annual percentage rate may be adjusted based on individual credit standing and term. Payment Example: $25,000 loan for 60 months at 5.99% APR will have a monthly payment of $482.25.

2.
  • A home equity line of credit is a variable rate loan that may adjust monthly. Rates are as low as 4.50% APR as a floor and a maximum APR of 18.00%. APR may be adjusted based on individual credit standing and term. Members can borrow against the available line of credit for a period of 15 years, after which time the existing balance must be paid in full by making a monthly principal and interest payment in a new 15-year repayment period. Closing costs range from $130 to $1,500 to cover the appraisal fee and title update fee. A late fee of 5% of the payment may be charged for a payment more than 15 days late.
