Existing loans must have at least 12 Monthly Payments (or half paid) made before re-applications will be considered by the loan officer or the credit committee - All loans are disbursed as funds are available - to credit worthy applicants - interest is charged on the unpaid balance only - compare our monthly payments to other financial institutions!
Members must credit qualify and be in good standing to receive the lower rate. Share-secured loans will always get the best rate. Also please remember that there will be a $6.00 charge to run your credit report. Rates and terms are subject to change without notice.
Free Life Insurance coverage on all credit union loans.
1Annual Percentage Rate
2Minimum Monthly Payment: $50.00. Note: You must be a member of RPIEFCU for 30 days in order to take out a loan of any kind. You must be employed by the sponsor for 180 days.
3Used Car Loan: Car must be purchased from a licensed car dealer.
Approval of loans over $20K will require a minimum score on the standard credit reports used by RPIEFCU. The required score will be set by the Credit Committee, subject to review by the Board of Directors.
Our rates are competitive with other financial institutions. Your payments are lower because interest is charged on the declining balance and remember no payment books and mailing expenses.
Select your vehicle from a licensed dealer, get a purchase price and call the office at 276-6593 to see what your credit union can do for you. We think you'll be pleasantly suprised!
Note: If you have a "Loan Special," it must be paid off before you can qualify for another. Loan interest rates are set at the time the loan is disbursed. Any subsequent reductions in rates are not applicable to existing loans.
