DCU Stock-Secured Loans
About Stock-Secured Loans
If you've built up a valuable stock portfolio, selling those stocks to finance something like a new car, your daughter's wedding, or your child's college education could have expensive capital-gains tax implications. A more prudent alternative may be to borrow against the value of that stock at DCU.
DCU finances up to 70% of the 52-week Low value of the stock (50% of that value if you are borrowing for the purchase of additional stock).
Stock must be listed on the New York Stock Exchange ( www.nyse.com) and/or the NASDAQ ( www.nasdaq.com). Loan amounts up to $200,000 and terms up to 120 months (10 years) are available. The stock must be in certificate form. The certificates will be held by DCU during the term of the loan. If you have a Relationship Checking relationship and make electronic payments for the full term of your loan, your interest rate will be 1/2% below that for other payment methods. See below for more on qualifying repayment methods. Rates are also based on your personal credit history. See our rates page for current interest rates. Use our loan calculators to help you determine the loan financing and payment options that are best for you.
Convenient Repayment Method
Repaying is easy. You can set up your loan for weekly or monthly payments. Each payment will be the same amount. That amount, and how your previous payments were applied to principal and interest, are shown on your regular DCU monthly statement.
You can repay electronically and qualify for our best rates any of three ways. (1) You can repay online with PC Branch with a simple transfer from any of your DCU savings accounts. When you set up Automatic Transfers with PC Branch, it's even more convenient. (2) You can also make loan payment transfers by phone with Easy Touch. (3) Finally, you can have us automatically make the payments by automatic transfer for you. All you need to do is fill out and send us your authorization form. You can even make Loan Principal-Only Payments on Easy Touch. In addition, you can repay at a DCU ATM, at any DCU branch, or by mail with a loan payment coupon. These methods do not qualify for Relationship Checking/Electronic Payment rates.
You Can Choose Your Payment Amount And Due Date.
With DCU's Payment Choice, you can tell us how much and when you'd like to pay each month and we'll do our best to make it work. This option is available on all consumer loans, including auto, RV, boat, PC, personal, and bill consolidation loans. At DCU, we give you the control.
