Perks of a CMCU Mortgage Loan

We're Local

Local lenders, underwriters, and processors mean that we can relate to your local values. Local knowledge and expertise helps speed up the processing to get to closing faster. Plus, a vast majority of our loans stay in-house instead of being sold off.

Loan Options

CMCU offers many different types of mortgage loans. From traditional 30-year fixed-rate loans to various government programs like Rural Development or VA loans, we'll be sure to set you up with the right mortgage that fits your needs.

Lower Fees

Instead of the typical 1% (or higher) origination fee for closing, CMCU has a single $1,000 closing fee for all loans*, no matter how big your mortgage loan might be.

Digital Experience

Your mortgage loan can be connected to your current CMCU digital banking account so you can view all your accounts in a single place. You can also schedule and pay your mortgage payments to save on stamps and envelopes!


Home Loan Process

Complete an Application

Submit an application with some details such as your contact information, property details, current debt, monthly payments, and approximate credit score. A mortgage lender will be in touch within several business days with a loan estimate and any additional details. You will need to submit more documents such as bank statements, pay stubs, W-2s, tax returns, or details of your employment. Your mortgage lender will explain the documentation needed.

Home Appraisal

A mortgage lender will order an appraisal for your home to determine its value based on factors such as the number of bedrooms or bathrooms, similar homes sold recently in the area, and any other characteristics of the home. All of these factors will be considered when determining the loan amount and terms.

Sit tight as CMCU does some processing and files all the paperwork. We'll be in touch with you regarding the final details of your mortgage loan, how much your payment will be, and other fun details. This is also when the closing date will be set.

Mortgage Closing

It's Closing Day! We'll need your wet signature on a variety of documents to finalize your mortgage loan and process refinance of the mortgage loan. This will likely happen at a titled company's office.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PROCEDURES FOR OPENING A NEW ACCOUNT

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account.
What this means for you: When you open an account, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you.
We may also ask to see your driver’s license or other identifying documents.
