Home Loans
We offer a complete line of home loan options. All properties must be located within Southeast Alaska.
Fixed Rate
A fixed-rate mortgage offers a monthly payment that will be the same for the life of the loan. If you appreciate the convenience of a consistent mortgage payment regardless of the market, this could the perfect program for you!
Adjustable Rate
An adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) provides the borrower with a lower initial payment, yet carries a degree of uncertainty as the market changes. An adjustable-rate mortgage will temporarily lock into a rate at the time of closing. After the initial lock period ends, the rate will adjust. Adjustable rate mortgages allow borrowers to benefit from falling interest rates without refinancing, however borrowers need to prepare for rates to increase as well. If you are considering a refinance or a move in the near future, an ARM loan may be a great option for you.
Rural Development
The Rural Development program is targeted for homebuyers with low-to-moderate income and savings, who are looking to purchase a home in a designated rural area. RD allows the borrower additional funds to pay for closing costs or prepaids in the mortgage. The RD loan is not limited to first time homebuyers, and can also be used to refinance an existing RD mortgage to a lower interest rate.
FHA Loan
The FHA loan program is for borrowers that may not have exceptional credit, or are looking for a low down-payment option with affordable terms. FHA features a down payment of just 3.5%, as well as flexible credit and more forgiving qualification requirements.
Non-Conforming
A non-conforming mortgage loan is a loan that fails to meet certain criteria for funding. Certain life circumstances such as a change in income, job loss, bankruptcy, or a property deficiency could make it difficult to obtain a traditional home loan. We are able to underwrite non-conforming mortgages to our members in-house.
