FAQs

Get Answers to Our Most Frequently Asked Questions.

What are your current interest rates?

Rates are based on credit, and only our lowest rates are viewable before the application is submitted—which you can see by visiting https://www.nymcu.org/rates. Or, you can request the current rates when speaking to one of our friendly loan officers. But, the only way to know what rate you’ll qualify for is to apply.

Do I need to be a member to apply for a loan?

Yes, membership is required to apply for any type of loan with MCU. Visit https://www.nymcu.org/join/becoming-a-member to learn more about membership and eligibility.

What is the closing process?

You can track the status of your loan application via our NYMCU Online and Mobile Banking platforms. When it is time to move forward with your loan, you will be contacted by a member of our staff to discuss the process. Once the documents are signed and the loan is processed, you will receive your funds.

How do I know if a type of loan is the right option for me?

Because everyone’s scenario is unique, please feel contact an MCU representative or a Lending Sales Specialist at 1-844-MCU-NYNY (1-844-628-6969). Our team is available to help you make an informed decision regarding which loan you should pursue.

Which is better, a fixed-rate or an adjustable-rate mortgage?

We encourage you to speak to one of our expert lending officers for more detailed information, but, generally speaking, a fixed-rate mortgage may fit the needs of a buyer when the initial mortgage rate is lower, as it allows you to lock in said rate. If the current rate is high or if you won’t be owning the property for a standard mortgage term, an adjustable-rate mortgage may be more appropriate as the rates tend to be lower earlier on in the life of the mortgage.
