* Credit Card loans require a monthly payment that will pay the interest due AND reduce the principal balance by 5%. The payments shown above reflect the first full monthly payment only. The term usually calculates to be no more than a 2-year amortization (as long as payments are made and no additional charges are added to the balance).
** Home Equity loans are variable rate loans. The payment is subject to change beginning each January 1st. The rate and payment amount shown here are based on the initial year only.
SPECIAL NOTE: On New and Used Vehicle Loans and Mortgage Loans (except Home Equity), if your loan-to-collateral value is 80% or less, then the above rates will be lowered by 0.50%. Collateral value is usually determined from invoice, appraisal report, NADA or New Car Cost Guide publications. |
