When you find that perfect new home, there is no need to wait for the sale of your old home before you buy the new one. Bridge financing allows you to take advantage of the equity in your existing home and apply that equity to your new home even before your current home is sold. Many times bridge financing can be structured so that you will not have a monthly payment on that loan (no worries about increasing your monthly payments). When your old home sells, the bridge loan will be paid off and you can finalize the mortgage financing on your new home.

Rates and terms will depend on the amount financed and borrower qualifications. Call us with any questions you may have, or to set an appointment to visit with one of our experienced Real Estate Lenders.

NOTE: There are some risks associated with short term bridge financing in the event your old home fails to sell in a timely manner. Your lender will help you to understand those risks so you can decide if the bridge financing could be right for you.

Come see us for all of your borrowing needs, you'll get the personal attention you deserve that makes doing business with us a pleasure.

You've worked hard to establish and maintain your good credit. Let Grand Valley Bank help you enjoy the rewards of your efforts. Your success allows us to offer you a credit plan that you can depend on for security and convenience.

Overdraft Protection is designed to reduce complications and charges should your checking account become overdrawn. OverDraft Protection means that we've approved, in advance, a personal loan if you should overdraw your checking account. Our plan helps you avoid costly overdraft charges and embarrassing delays.

We understand the excitement of uncovering a great bargain, the joy of buying that perfect gift, or the fun of a spontaneous weekend holiday. We also understand the potential disappointment of having to cancel plans because of a depleted bank account, but it needn't happen again. Use your good credit to qualify for overdraft protection, and your checking account will become a personal loan account. You may write your own loan any time you need extra money for pleasure or an emergency. Experience the freedom of having a reserve fund at your command.

Whenever you write a check and you don't have compensating funds in your checking account, the money will be advanced in $50.00 increments from your OverDraft Protection plan to cover the check(s) up to the amount of your credit limit. Monthly minimum payments of $25 or 10% of the amount you owe will be automatically deducted from your checking account on the day your statement cycles. You can always pay part or the entire amount owed on your OverDraft Protection plan anytime. Finance Charges accrue at the daily periodic rate of .00049315% when you make an advance.

The ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE is 18%. Taking the principal balance of your account each day and applying the daily periodic rate calculates the finance charge on this plan. To figure the principal balance for each day, we take your loan balance at the beginning of each day and subtract any unpaid finance charges and principal payments or credits credits (a portion of each payment you make is applied to finance charges). Then, we add any new advances made that day. The final figure is the principal balance.

Visit any of our New Accounts Representatives for an application. Once you're approved, you'll have new cash resources available.
