Qualifications
Approval criteria involves the evaluation of each loan applicant’s credit history, employment stability and other verifiable sources of income, as well as assets needed for down payment and other funds needed for closing. In general, a credit score of at least 620 is desirable in evaluating the credit risk associated with a mortgage loan. However, we do not discourage you from applying for consideration of a home loan for regardless of your credit score.

Sellers frequently require a prequalification letter before accepting your offer on a house. A prequalification letter is a document from PEFCU stating that we are tentatively willing to lend to you, up to a certain loan amount. This document is based on certain assumptions and it is not a guaranteed loan offer, but it lets the seller know that you are likely to be able to get financing. PEFCU will pull your credit report to evaluate your creditworthiness for a prequalification. Call one of our Mortgage Loan Officers or click below to get prequalified today!
