Investment Properties

These loans are for the purchase or refinance of investment or rental property. We offer competitive interest rates and flexible structuring. Just call one of our loan officers for details on a streamlined application process for these loans.

Construction

We like new Construction Loans as it really creates new value in the community. We have very flexible lending requirements to match the construction loan with the term of construction. One feature we offer that many builders and home owners really appreciate is the process we use for making the construction loan disbursements. Most of our construction loan disbursements are done right at the bank so that the builder or home owner is not required to travel to a remote title company each time a draw is requested. This generally streamlines the construction disbursement process.

Fixed Rate

Our bank is an approved seller and servicer for Freddie Mac loans. This allows us the advantage of being able to not only approve your loan request on a local basis, but also the ability to lock in a fixed rate for the term of the mortgage. Fixed Rates can be obtained for up to a 30 year amortization schedule.

Another benefit we provide as an approved Freddie Mac seller and servicer is that we handle the servicing of your loan locally. Our policy has been to retain the servicing of your loan so that it is not sold to other lenders that you may not know.
