Home Loans
Happy Homeowners Start Here
Buying a home is one of the most significant purchases you'll ever make. It's an exciting but also nerve-wracking time. You want a lender who not only gives you a good deal (and we've got that covered) but also one who can keep up with today's fast-paced market. That's where we step in. We can help you get pre-approved so you can jump on your dream home as soon as you find it.
And when it comes to home loans, it’s important to make sure your loan matches your life. Think about some big questions like: Is this your forever home, or are you planning to move within five years? Your answers will help you figure out which loan is the best fit for you. We love working with our members to find the perfect loan, and with a wide variety of loan programs to choose from, you’re sure to find one that fits your lifestyle.
Home Equity Loans
A home equity loan allows you to borrow against the equity you have built in your home. Use a home equity loan for anything you need including:
Home improvement
Home remodeling
Debt consolidation
Education financing
And much more
Borrow up to 80% of the value of your home, minus any outstanding liens at a highly competitive rate. Minimum loan amount is $30,000.00
Conventional Mortgage Loans
Conventional mortgages are non-government loans that are the most common type of mortgage loans. Conventional loans can be more affordable in the long run and can be a smart investment for your future. And at Fort Worth City Credit Union, you don’t need to worry about private mortgage insurance (PMI) for most of our home loans. That means you save some cash on closing costs and also see some big savings on your monthly payments.
We offer a variety of conventional loan options:
Purchase (Home or Land): Competitive rates and flexible terms make it easier than you think to get a home loan.
Refinance (Home or Land - No cash out): If interest rates have gone down since you bought your house, or you have an adjustable-rate mortgage that is about to start going up, refinancing is a great way to save money on a loan with a high monthly payment or to lock in a fixed rate to make your budgeting more predictable.
Interim Construction: Short-term financing while your dream home is under construction. These loans are available to both primary residences and second homes (available for properties in Texas only), with interest-only payments during the 12-month construction period.
FHA, VA, and USDA Mortgage Loans
When you buy a house, you have a lot of financing options beyond a conventional mortgage loan, like FHA, VA, and USDA loans. Each of these comes with great benefits, including up to 100% financing (subject to underwriting approval).
Additional Benefits
We also offer discounts to members on property insurance through TruStage. TruStage works with Liberty Mutual to provide coverage for your home or condo, along with renters insurance.
Secure and Fair Enforcement Licensing Act
The Secure and Fair Enforcement for Mortgage Licensing Act (SAFE Act) requires each employee of Fort Worth City Credit Union who acts as a residential mortgage loan originator to register with the Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System (NMLS), obtain a unique identifier number, and maintain this registration. The SAFE Act also provides that the credit union must require each employee who acts as a residential mortgage loan originator to comply with the SAFE Act’s requirements. The credit union must also ensure that members have access to our mortgage loan originators’ unique identifier numbers to enable access the NMLS registry information to obtain publicly available information on a mortgage loan originator (such as: employment history, state licensing, and enforcement actions) before committing to a mortgage loan transaction.
Below is the list of FWCCU’s NMLS Registered Loan Originators with NMLS ID numbers which you may use to obtain loan originator information through the NMLS Consumer Access website.
