IT’S YOUR EQUITY. USE IT YOUR WAY.
Goals are individual, just like you. Our mortgage team is here to help.

HOME EQUITY LINES OF CREDIT
HELOCs are a great way to give you the flexibility you need. You get to decide how much of your
line you use, and only pay interest on the amount you’re using, while still being able to withdraw up to your approved limit whenever you need it. HELOCs aren’t limited to home improvement. You can use your line to pay for debt consolidation, education, personal, or medical expenses as well.

FIXED RATE HOME EQUITY LOANS
Worried about the changing rate environment, or know you want to get all of your money at once?

A second mortgage can be the best way to go to get a fixed rate for the life of your loan. No need to worry about the rate going up. And just like a HELOC, you can use it whatever way you want.

Interest paid for a home equity loan and certain home improvement expenses may be tax deductible. Check with your tax advisor. Membership is required. Visit waunafcu.org for more details.

Removal of Most Covid-19 Restrictions

On June 30, 2021 Governors Brown (OR) and Insley (WA) lifted all restrictions regarding COVID-19 precautions that have been in effect since last year. OSHA has still not announced any changes, however, with the guidance from the states, we too are lifting the precautions.

  • We are not asking members to prove they’ve been vaccinated in order to enter the branch   
  • Vaccinated staff members have provided the necessary proof to WCU Human Resources 
  • Employees may unmask if they are 2 weeks past their final dose or are fully vaccinated otherwise
  • Employees who do not provide proof of vaccination two weeks past their final does MUST continue to wear a mask at work
  • Employees who are fully vaccinated, verified, and allowed to remove their mask may still choose to wear one

For those wishing to take increased precautions. We recommend all members use our U-Banking online and app banking, which is available 24/7, and our Video Teller Units to conduct your financial transactions and keep yourself safe.
