*APR = Annual Percentage Rate. Rates posted are indications only and are subject to change without notice. Your actual rate and/or points may be different, as many factors go into providing you with a mortgage loan. The quotes are based on a specific loan amount for the purchase of a single-family primary residence. Rates and payments shown are based on a loan amount of $200,000 with 25% down, an excellent credit score, and purchase of a primary residence.

**Jumbo products are based on a loan amount of $806,501 with 20% down, an excellent credit score, and purchase of a primary residence.

+Smart Start: A payment example for a 5-year Adjustable-Rate Mortgage (ARM) product with a 3.00% down payment. Purchase Price: Purchase Price: $206,200; Loan Amount: $200,000; Interest Rate: 7.25%; Annual Percentage Rate: 7.40% APR; Initial Fixed Period: Interest is fixed for the first 5 years, then adjusts periodically. This will result in 60 monthly principal and interest payments of $1,365. Please note that these payments do not include taxes or insurance. Actual payments may be higher. This example is for illustrative purposes only and assumes a FICO score of 620 with 0 points. Actual terms may vary.

^15-Year Fixed Rates are available for a limited time, and subject to change without notice. All loans are subject to credit approval, membership eligibility, and underwriting guidelines. The advertised rate applies to owner-occupied properties and assumes excellent credit, a qualifying loan-to-value (LTV) ratio, and other eligibility factors. Additional terms, conditions, and restrictions may apply. Contact us for full details. Payment Example: A $200,000 loan with 25% down at a 5.99% APR on a 15-year fixed mortgage would result in a monthly principal and interest payment of approximately $1,318.57. This does not include taxes and insurance, which will increase the total payment.

PMI is Private Mortgage Insurance. It is typically required by lenders when someone puts less than 20% down on the price of a house they want to buy. This usually comes as an added monthly expense in your mortgage payment. Smart Start does not charge PMI, saving you money and reducing your monthly payment.
