Financial Issues for Local and State Union Officers:
Mortgage Program
APWU members can take advantage of a wide range of home-buying options through the Union Plus Mortgage and Real Estate program. Designed exclusively for union members and their families, the program makes buying, selling and refinancing a home easier and more affordable.
Financing is provided through Chase Home Finance, one of the largest lenders in the U.S. that has served homebuyers for over 90 years. Chase's mortgage counselors can help APWU members through the process and answer questions.
Affordable programs include FHA, VA loans, special programs for first-time homebuyers, and loans for manufactured homes. Programs for borrowers with exceptional credit and for borrowers with "less than perfect" credit are also available.
The Mortgage Assistance Program can help homeowners make their mortgage payments if they become unemployed as a result of a disability. This valuable program was developed solely for union members by the AFL-CIO - to provide peace of mid for union homeowners.
