Citizens Banking Company is now offering
a full range of Home Mortgage Programs.

You Choose one to fit your needs.

Options:
Fixed Rate Loan:
Affordable monthly payments calculated for repayment over a range of time periods. For many, shorter loan periods are a desirable way to build up equity faster, pay less interest and achieve full ownership sooner.

Adjustable Rate Mortgage (ARMs):
One of the lowest starting rates possible makes the initial term payments attractive. Rate "caps" on ARMs offer future protection by putting a ceiling on the maximum rate you'll ever have to pay.

Hometown Mortgage Program
(Loans for low to moderate wage earners): We are proud of our commitment to community reinvestment and to the wage earners who thought they could never afford a home. Among our innovative programs could be one just for you. We will be pleased to discuss your needs and explain all the details about affordable home ownership.

Pre-Approval & Getting Started
Now, you can save up-front time and up-front cash with a Citizens Bank Home Loan.
• Pre-Approval: Apply for a loan before you go house hunting and you’ll be able to target the house that’s right for you. Once you are pre-approved for your own loan amount, the rest of the process could be much easier than you thought. The realtor and seller will be assured of your approval. And, once you’ve made your buying decision, the time it takes to close the transaction will be much shorter.
• Getting Started: Buying a home
shouldn’t be complicated for the creditworthy. Our mortgage specialists are specialized and trained to guide you through all the steps. They’ll go through the details of all the options that are too numerous to mention here. And they’ll answer all your questions. After all, our goal is simply to help you achieve your dream of owning your own home.

What to bring when applying
• Each borrower’s social security number
• A list of all assets owned
• A list of all debts owed
• Verification of employment
(recent paycheck stubs; W2 forms and tax returns for the past 2 years)

Your mortgage specialist may ask for additional information.
