Rates and terms they state

LoanStatedText on the lender's site (verbatim)Page
Auto / vehicle loansRate stated, not as an APR: see their wordingAs of 10/6/2026, our floor rate is 4.69%.source
Loans (general)Term: see their wordingFrom the start of the HELOC, the homeowner has up to 20 years to gradually pay back the amount borrowed, using monthly payments.source

As published on the lender's website on that date, not an offer or a quote. Your rate depends on the lender's review. A missing rate means the pages we read did not state one. For consumer loans we repeat a rate only when the lender states it as an APR (annual percentage rate, which includes fees); otherwise read the lender's own wording and ask for the APR.

Who qualifies, in their words

  • Membership required Membership & underwriting approval required. source
  • Collateral flexible or not always required Borrow without providing a security. source
  • First-time homebuyer program Home Loans for First-Time Buyers, Upgraders, Downsizers, and Mortgage Refinancers source

Only rules the lender's own pages state. Other requirements may apply.

Questions to ask when you contact them

Based on what their website said when we read it on 2 Nov 2026, and what it left out. Something missing here does not mean they don't offer it: ask.

  1. How do I become a member, and is there a fee or a minimum deposit?
    Credit unions lend only to their members.
  2. What are the smallest and the largest loans you make?
    No loan amounts are stated on their website.
  3. What is the APR, including fees, on your auto loans and home repair loans?
    Their website states a rate, but not as an APR. The APR includes fees, so it is the number to compare.
  4. Is there a minimum credit score, and do you consider borrowers with little or no credit history?
    Their website does not say what credit history they accept.
  5. What documents will you need from me, and how long does a decision usually take?
    Their website describes some application steps (above); ask for the full document list.

Write down the answers, who you spoke to and the date, and ask for the terms in writing before you sign.

These are awards and investments made to the institution itself to build its capital and capacity. They are not loans to borrowers, and an award does not mean the lender has money available for a particular loan today.
