1 The 4.74% Introductory Annual Percentage Rate (APR*) is based on a promotional rate of 4.99% APR minus a .25% discount for setting up automatic payments. The introductory rate is fixed for six months and, after the fixed period, will change to a variable rate transaction which means the APR, minimum payment amount, and final payment amount may change monthly. During the variable rate period, the APR will be determined based on the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus a margin and will be rounded to the nearest 0.125%. As of April 15, 2025, the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate is 7.50%. The margin is based on several factors including credit score, loan to value, and loan amount. The APR does not include costs other than interest. Under no circumstance will the APR go below 4.00% or exceed 18.00%. Excellent credit is required to qualify for the lowest rates. At least 50% of booked applicants applying for the advertised rate qualified for the advertised rate based on data from 1/1/24 – 1/31/25.
2 The ”auto pay” discount of 0.25% is available by setting up automatic payments at or before account opening from an eligible Bank of Clarke deposit account and maintaining those automatic payments throughout the term of the loan. If for any reason the automatic payments are terminated, the interest rate discount will be terminated, and the rate will increase by 0.25% effective the next business day and will remain for the life of the loan.
All rates and terms are subject to change without notice.
