Mortgages
- Fixed Rate Loans – This "traditional" type of loan maintains its original interest rate throughout the entire life of the loan.
- Adjustable Rate Loans – This flexible loan features a lower monthly payment fixed for a set number of years and then adjusts after the initial fixed period.
- Jumbo Loans – If your dream home exceeds the conventional loan limit of $766,550, take advantage of our special pricing.
-
Unique Loans – We offer a number of unique loans, including first-time homebuyer programs, investment and second homes.
Already have a mortgage?
Depending on your current rate and how long you plan to stay in your home, refinancing your mortgage may lower your monthly payment and even shorten the term of your loan.
- External Refinances - Do you have a mortgage with another lender? Our refinancing programs may be a better fit.
- Cash-Out Refinances - Use the equity in your home for home improvements or to consolidate high interest debt.
- Rate Modifications** - If you currently have an American Airlines Credit Union home loan, we can change your interest rate or loan program for a low fee.
- Home Equity Line Of Credit (HELOCs) - The equity in your home is a valuable resource, and we want to help you tap into it. Our HELOC loans can be used for many purposes, from home improvements to debt consolidation.

“The Credit Union offers low loan financing and not a lot of hassle. It was also easier to get a home loan preapproval than other conventional lenders.”
Charles, member since 2018
* This is not a firm offer of credit or a guaranteed loan offer. An instant preapproval letter is only eligible on primary residences. Debt-to-Income (DTI) ratios must be under 33%/43% with a minimum credit score of 660. Any income listed aside from standard W2 wages will not be immediately eligible to receive a preapproval. Not all members will be eligible. We offer a free 60-day rate lock on both purchase and refinance transactions and a free 90-day rate lock on construction-to-perm loans. All rate locks are valid for up to 60 or up to 90 days respectively from the date the Rate Lock Agreement is signed. Certain terms and restrictions apply. Contact a mortgage loan officer for full details
** Not all loan programs are eligible. Must be a member-owner in good standing. No principal payments in month of modification.
