Stories from our satisfied homeowners
Our Mortgage Representative was amazing. She communicated timely, problem solved and ensured everything was in perfect order. Would recommend SIU Credit Union to anyone looking to purchase a home.
SIUCU has done a splendid job servicing our mortgage loans on two different properties now. Any request we've shared is responded to quickly, professionally, and helpfully. They don't just sell you a mortgage and then leave you to some impersonal third party. If you want your mortgage managed by a caring local [financial institution], I can heartily recommend SIUCU.
It was such a pleasure working with [SIU Credit Union]! Very professional, clear and consistent communication. The mortgage process can be very stressful but [the team] was so accommodating and worked hard for us to make it simple as possible.
