Members must demonstrate favorable credit reports in order to obtain any type of RHCU loan. Applicants for unsecured loans (no collateral required) must exhibit perfect credit histories.

Because it is often difficult to obtain credit reports at remote locations, the RHCU requires approximately two weeks to process applications for unsecured loans and even longer for secured loans (depending on how difficult it is for the Credit Union to secure collateral). Other related factors may also affect decisions to grant loans.

Mortgages - Real estate loans are available in amounts up to $300,000 for up to 15 years. Collateral (security) for real estate loans can be in the form of other real estate, certificate of deposit, or savings in an RHCU account.

With real estate as collateral, RHCU will lend up to 80% of the documented equity in that real estate. That is to say the original mortgage on the collateral real estate and the new RHCU loan amount combined may not exceed 80% of value.

Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) – Members can also request a home equity line of credit which can be drawn from for a maximum of 7 years for up to 80% of the equity in their home. Payoff periods vary depending on the amount borrowed. See loan rates for rates for more details.

Savings or Certificate of Deposit Loans - Members may also borrow up to 100% of funds in an RHCU savings account or certificate of deposit for up to a maximum term of 144 months.

The amount of the loan may not exceed 100% of savings in the Credit Union, and the funds remain frozen to the extent of the remaining balance of the loan.

Swing or Bridge Loans – From time to time, as financial conditions permit, RHCU may offer swing or bridge loans. These loans are available to members who must begin paying mortgages on new homes before selling their existing homes. Normally, home buyers need to sell one home to help pay for a new one. A swing loan provides the necessary funds until the old residence can be sold.

Tuition Lines of Credit—RHCU offers Tuition Lines of Credit to qualified applicants who are Rohm and Haas employees, or employees of other companies who offer tuition reimbursement. Payment of principal and interest are due six month from the date of each advance.
