Up to 95% Financing on Mortgages from Alabama Credit Union

Alabama Credit Union has several different types of mortgages that have good rates including 15 year mortgage rates at 4.25%. Alabama Credit Union also offers financing for up to 95% of a home's value.  This is notable because most lenders (especially these days) are only offering financing up to 80% of the home's loan-to-value (LTV) ratio. During the housing boom a few years ago, buyers could get financing for 100% or more of a home's value with no proof of income. Predictably, the rates on home loans for more than 80% financing are higher.

Another good point about the credit union's loan program is they will loan you up to 90% of a home's value without requiring Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI). PMI is insurance that you pay that protects the lender in case you default on the loan, which is deemed more likely when you borrow more than 80% of the value. PMI is usually required for a loan more than 80% of the value of the property.
