Mortgage Loans

Mortgage Solutions

We have expanded our home loan offerings, giving you more possible routes to home and land ownership. Apply online or contact us and we’ll walk you through the whole process. Plus, we can set you up with a real estate agent who will give you 20% cash back on your realtor’s commission (a huge savings).

Feel like home ownership is still out of reach? You may qualify for an Oregon tax break while saving money to buy a home. Click here to learn about the new First-Time Home Buyer Savings Account we now offer.

While we are proud to say we never sell the servicing of our conventional loans, so you can make your mortgage payments to us and not a third party, some of our other loan options will be serviced by a trusted third party to allow us to offer the greatest variety of options for you.
