Home Improvement
Home Equity Loans and Lines of Credit
Mortgages - Home Purchase
- Fixed Rate
You get the security of a stable interest rate that won't change for the life of your loan. It's perfect if you plan to live in your home for many years. - 5/1 Adjustable Rate
You get a typically lower monthly payment thanks to a fixed rate for the first five years, then an adjustable rate each year after that. It's ideal for homebuyers who plan to refinance, for example, if you are working to qualify for a fixed rate mortgage in a few years, or will move in a few years.
Mortgages - Refinance
Mortgages - Construction
Please call 473-0244 to reach our home loan center. We will work with you to achieve your financial goals.

Cooperative Federal also offers advice about credit, housing, and business.
The Credit Union Difference
Cooperative Federal's Lending Department does a lot — but also important is what we don't do!
- No pre-payment penalties
- on any of our loans. You pay interest only for the time you use the money borrowed.
- No commissions
- our loan officers do not make commission from your loan, so that they can advise you based on what is good for you, not what makes a commission.
This is another benefit of membership in a nonprofit credit union.
All Credit Union loan programs, rates, terms and conditions are subject to change at any time without notice. Call us at (315) 473-0242 for current rates, terms and conditions.
