Residential Lending - Consumer Lending - Lending Specialists - Calculators


Since 1910, Peoples Bank has helped thousands of homeowners realize the long cherished dream of owning a home. Peoples Bank has led the way in offering innovative mortgage programs, homeownership counseling, and first time homebuyer education seminars.

Whether you are looking to purchase a home, begin construction or seeking to refinance, Peoples Bank has the right lending product for you. A wide range of flexible and affordable lending products with competitive rates and terms are available. Our experienced Residential Lending Specialists will take the time to help you accurately evaluate your housing needs. Together, we can determine which lending product best meets your needs.

Fixed Rate Mortgages
Fixed Rate Mortgages offer a locked in interest rate for the life of the loan, so the monthly principal and interest payments will never change. Terms are available in 10, 15, 20, 30, or 40 years.

Adjustable Rate Mortgages
An Adjustable Rate Mortgage, or ARM, offers a lower initial rate that is fixed for a period of time, and then adjusts annually thereafter. Our most popular adjustable rate mortgages include:

1-Year Adjustable – rate adjusts annually
3-Year Mini Fixed
– rate is fixed for first three years, then adjusts annually thereafter
5-Year Mini Fixed
– rate is fixed for first five years, then adjusts annually thereafter
7-Year Mini Fixed
– rate is fixed for first seven years, then adjusts annually thereafter

100 % Financing with an 80/20 Loan
Obtain financing for 100% of your borrowing needs with an 80/20 Loan from Peoples Bank. 80% of your home is financed with a traditional mortgage loan of your choice and the remaining 20% is financed with a separate mortgage loan. The program requires no down payment and the ability to avoid paying Private Mortgage Insurance. This lending option will also allow you to build equity in your home faster!

First Time Homebuyers Program
If you are a first time homebuyer, let a Peoples Bank Residential Lending Specialist explain some of the benefits that you may qualify for. Our First Time Homebuyers Program provides home ownership education with down payments as low as 3% and expanded qualifying criteria. Down payment assistance may also be available.

Preapprovals are recommended by most realtors to assist in searching for a home, and they are often required when making a bid. A Mortgage preapproval letter from Peoples Bank is valid for up to four months and can be prepared in as little as 48 hours. Construction preapprovals, which are valid for up to 6 months, are also available. Set up a consultation today!
