*APR = ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE. 
THE ABOVE PAYMENT EXAMPLES DO NOT REFLECT AMOUNTS DUE FOR TAXES, HOMEOWNER'S INSURANCE AND PMI INSURANCE (PMI INSURANCE WILL BE REQUIRED IF YOU ARE BORROWING MORE THAN 80% OF THE APPRAISED VALUE OF THE PROPERTY). THEREFORE, YOUR ACTUAL PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS WILL BE HIGHER.
Above APRs are based on loan amounts of $280,000. Above rates are applicable to loans secured by a 1-2 Family home which is the principal residence of the borrower(s). Different rates may apply for loans secured by Co-ops, Second/Vacation homes and 3-4 Family homes. Rates may be higher based on applicant’s creditworthiness. Rates and terms are subject to change without notice. Certain restrictions may apply.

1Your mortgage interest rate is determined by a comprehensive assessment of your creditworthiness, encompassing your credit history, financial stability (including income), the loan amount requested, and other pertinent factors. It's crucial to understand that prevailing market conditions dynamically influence interest rates, and these rates are subject to change without prior notice. The final interest rate will be confirmed only upon full loan approval.

Authorization for Credit Information Access
Submitting your mortgage application constitutes your authorization for MCU to access and review your credit report and other relevant financial data obtained from authorized credit reporting agencies. This information is solely utilized to determine your eligibility for a mortgage. Please be aware that this credit inquiry may result in a minor, temporary impact on your credit score.

Promotional Rate Information
Should promotional interest rates be available, please note that these are offered for a limited time and are contingent upon meeting specific eligibility criteria. These criteria may include, but are not limited to: a minimum credit score, adherence to loan-to-value ratio thresholds, and specific loan purpose and property type requirements. It is important to understand that promotional rates cannot be combined with other discounts or offers; additional terms and conditions apply.

Rates and terms are dependent on credit approval and loan-to-value ratios. A 3% down payment on a $250,000 loan amounts to $7,500.

MCU requires Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI) for conforming home loans with a loan-to-value (LTV) ratio greater than 80%. As little as 3% down payments are for qualifying first-time homebuyers only. 5% minimum applies to other borrowers. Other loan types may require different fees or insurance (e.g., VA funding fee, FHA Mortgage Insurance Premiums, etc.). Loan requirements may vary depending on your down payment amount, and minimum down payment varies by loan type.
