In-House Mortgage Loans
If you want to finance your home, but don’t want to go through the secondary market, First Metro Bank offers in-house mortgage loans. Generally, closing costs are less than those costs incurred with secondary market loans. Competitive interest rates and terms are available on each of the following:
- Home Purchase Loans: Home Purchase Loans are available with financing up to 80% of the appraised value of the home. Contact a First Metro Bank Lender for more information about our in-house mortgage loans.
- Refinances: If you’re interested in refinancing your home, we offer three-year fixed interest rates and with financing available for up to 80% of the appraised value of the home.
- Construction Loans: Construction loans are a line of credit established for building your home. Home builders may make a draw on the loan to pay for building supplies and expenses. Permanent financing available upon completion.
- Second Mortgage Loans: Second mortgages are loans designed so the home owner may borrow against the existing equity in his or her home for immediate expenditures. Payments are usually based on a 15-year amortization with a fixed interest rate.
- Home Equity Lines of Credit: Equity Lines of Credit are revolving loans in which advances can be made for future expenditures (education, boat, home improvement, vacation, etc.). Interest rates on these loans may be variable or fixed.
