Chair and President s Letter For the first time in five years, we are finally able to talk positively about real estate homes specifically and how this may be the best time in years to think about remodeling, purchasing or moving up. Of course, your Credit Union is here as a resource for you on all fronts. If your kitchen cabinets are falling off their hinges or if you ve been wanting to update that bathroom with the pink sink, now is a great time to take out a home equity loan, for a number of reasons. First, despite recent increases in loan interest rates, in historical context, they still remain incredibly low. Additionally, homeowners are finally beginning to experience gains in their homes equity. These gains can be tapped to secure a home equity loan. Now is a great time to take out a home equity loan! You may remember the complaints of years gone by My contractor never calls me back, or My contractor is always on his other job and hasn t finished my remodel. When the recession was in full effect, these same contractors were hard pressed to find work. So, they are still working to get back to business as usual and you can find someone to complete your remodel in a timely manner at a competitive price. Home equity loans can also be used to consolidate debt, pay for education, take a dream vacation, or even finance a vehicle where you can write off the interest (speak to your tax advisor for information on the last point). You may have seen recent news reports that fixed mortgage rates increased for five consecutive weeks, and that for the fifth consecutive month in June, 70% of national housing market values have improved. For anyone looking to purchase a home, these are important indicators that now may be a good time to buy. LAPFCU is pleased to announce that we have begun a new Home Advantage Real Estate Resource and Rebate Program for those looking to purchase or sell a home. What this means is that if you work with a Realtor who is part of our dedicated network, you could receive a rebate of up to $5,000 or more when you complete your transaction. The way the program works is that you must sign up with one of the participating Realtors. They can be accessed at lapfcu.org and many specialize in working with the police family. You are also encouraged to obtain a loan preapproval through the Credit Union at that point to ensure the home of your dreams matches your wallet. When you complete the transaction, you are then given a 20% rebate of your agent s commission. In today s economy that is a great benefit. Additionally, if you have Member Benefits, you will receive an additional $200 rebate when you take out a mortgage loan from LAPFCU, so the savings add up quickly. Plus, LAPFCU has competitive loan programs including conventional, jumbo, FHA and VA. We also have great mortgage rates, a variety of loan terms, low fees and an easy application process at lapfcu.org. With all this talk of homes, we wanted to plant one more seed. Lorie Taylor Chair G. Michael Padgett President If you are looking to sell your home, you can also participate in the Home Advantage Real Estate Resource and Rebate Program and receive the same 20% rebate of your agent s commission. Purchasing and owning a home is one of life s great rewards and you want to work with a partner you can trust. Call the Credit Union today to see how we can help turn your homeowner dreams into realities. D 2

Get a $5,000 Rebate on Your Home Purchase or Sale Continued from Front Page Being pre-approved for a mortgage can also serve as a good negotiating tool. Although home prices are rising in many areas, some sellers might be inclined to accept a slightly lower offer if it s backed by a solid pre-approval. This can be particularly important when a competing offer comes from a buyer who hasn t yet applied for a mortgage. Finally, the process of obtaining a pre-approval prior to making a home search also gives you a realistic idea of what you can afford. That will help you make plans for future budgeting and can help focus your search for homes in your price range. LAPFCU makes it easy to get your pre-approval. Visit the Mortgage Center on lapfcu.org, stop by a branch, or call 877-MY-LAPFCU (877-695-2732) to start your application now! D 1 Program rebates are awarded to buyers and sellers who select and use an Agent in the CU Realty Approved network. Members are not eligible for the rebate if they select an agent outside the CU Realty network. Using your Credit Union for a mortgage is not a requirement to earn your rebate although they are often your best choice for mortgage options. Rebates/incentives are available in most states; however, are void where prohibited by law or by the lender.

A Message From LAPCUSO Insurance Services Tip for the Home We ve had a very dry winter and fire season has come early to Southern California and the Western United States. If you live near any hills, open lots or land within 200 feet of your home, please be proactive in clearing brush near your home. If you do not own the land near you, then find out who does and get permission to clear the brush. If a fire is in your area, it could be the difference between having and not having a home after the fire. Fill the GAP!
