🏦 Comparing Credit Union Mortgages
Credit unions are member owned, non-profit financial institutions. They do not have outside stockholders to pay, so they often pass savings to members through lower loan rates. National data suggests the average 30-year fixed rate mortgage from a credit union is 27 basis points (0.27%) lower than the national benchmark (updated weekly).
This calculator shows what those savings look like in real terms, both monthly and over the life of the loan.
Note: All rates are APR. Always shop APR to get an apples-to-apples comparison.
