Rental and Investment Programs
We have designed a variety of mortgage programs specifically for rental and investment properties. These programs offer flexible repayment terms with a choice of fixed or variable rates. See one of our mortgage specialists for more details.

Jumbo Loan Programs
Non-conforming (Jumbo) loans are loans in amounts that exceed the limits set by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. They typically carry higher interest rates and are often associated with high-end or investment property. Ideal for home buyers who need financing to purchase a more expensive property, and investment-minded buyers who can afford a large purchase but want to leverage their assets more effectively.


Ready to Build?

Construction to Permanent Loan
The Construction to Permanent loan is designed for borrowers who choose to finance the construction of their home by a licensed builder, desire to build a major addition to their home, or want to make major renovations. The loan is made directly to the borrower and not to the builder. The Construction to Permanent loan consists of two phases, the construction phase and the permanent phase. During the 12 month construction phase, the borrower is charged interest at the permanent note rate only on advanced funds. When construction is complete, the loan is modified into a permanent mortgage.

Conventional Fixed Rate Mortgages
As the most popular mortgage program for home buyers, a fixed rate mortgage offers the stability and consistency of predictable monthly principal and interest payments for the life of the loan, from 10 to 40 years. It may be a good choice for people who expect to live in a home for an extended period of time, or who want to lock in current low interest rates. With a fixed rate mortgage, payments remain constant, allowing you to plan and budget without factoring potential interest rate fluctuations.
