* APR = Annual Percentage Rate. Subject to credit approval. Your rate and credit limit will be determined based on individual creditworthiness including income, debt ratio, employment and equity in your home. Homeowners insurance required. A $295 early closure fee is applied if the loan is closed within the first 36 months. Must be a Sound Credit Union member to participate and anyone who lives or works in WA can join. Membership at Sound Credit Union requires a savings account with a minimum balance of $25. This plan has a variable rate feature and an APR (corresponding to the monthly periodic rate) and the minimum payment may change as a result. Equity in your home is based on tax assessed value or appraised value. The annual percentage rate includes only interest and no other costs and is based on the value of an index. This index is the Prime Rate published in the Wall Street Journal and is current as of 07/01/08 and could change at any time. Most home equity loans qualify for deductible interest. Consult your tax advisor for details.

Non-owner occupied and manufactured home fixed home equity rates are 1.25% higher than above-stated rates; non-owner occupied and manufactured home HELOC rates: 7.00%-8.00%; maximum LTV 80%; maximum loan amount $50,000.

** Except appraisal needed.

  How to Determine the Current Prime Rate
The Index is the highest rate of interest identified as the 'Prime Rate' in the 'Money Rates' column of the Wall Street Journal. You will use the most recent Index available to you as of 5 days before the date of any change to the ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE. To determine the ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE, which will apply to your account, a margin will be added to your current Index rate.
