Secured and Unsecured Personal Loans

Consider a secured or unsecured personal loan when you need additional cash for a relatively short period of time. The following descriptions provide a summary of our many personal loan products. Please contact a credit union loan officer to discuss your specific short-term personal loan needs and our full range of personal loan options.

Secured Personal Loans

Share Secured Loan (Savings or Term Certificate)

Use you credit union savings or term certificate account as collateral for a share secured loan. Borrow up to 100 percent of the amount you have on deposit at the credit union. Funds used as collateral will not be available for transactions/withdrawal by the member while being held as loan collateral. IRA accounts are not eligible for collateral, and the credit union will not accept deposit accounts held in other institutions as collateral for a credit union share secured loan. Funds secured for the loan continue to earn a dividend during the term of the loan.

“Fresh Start” Credit Builder Loan

This secured loan allows you to build a positive credit history for yourself and improve your credit rating over time. Get approved for this loan and the credit union will hold the loan funds until after the loan has been repaid in full. Pay off the loan and the credit union will release the full amount of the loan plus all dividends to the borrower. Your loan payment activity will be reported to the credit reporting agency over the course of the loan, giving you the chance to build a positive credit history. Members who successfully repay the Fresh Start loan are often able to borrow more money at a lower interest rate than previously possible.

Unsecured Personal Loan

Signature
This loan option may be used to pay for education, home improvements, vacation, medical bills, and other expenses. The maximum term for an unsecured loan is 36 months for qualified members. Eligibility for an unsecured loan is based on your past credit history, savings account balance, and other credit union loan approval guidelines.
