Hear From Our Customers
Citadel Has Been Outstanding
“I wanted to thank the Citadel Mortgage team for all their hard work over the past few months. My wife and I settled late yesterday afternoon on the Equity Line of Credit. As always, the process went smoothly, and throughout the entire mortgage process Citadel has been outstanding. As a result, we have been loyal Citadel customers for years. We will continue to be loyal customers with Citadel in future as a result of the credit unions outstanding work.”
Pleasant, Polite and Professional
“Citadel is amazing! Thank you so much to Citadel’s Mortgage Team! I recently tried to get a HELOC with another bank and they didn’t communicate, denied me without any notice for equity, and gave me a low estimate. I told my husband that we should try Citadel. Going with Citadel was the best decision ever. The communication was on point and the process was a breath of fresh air. Everyone was so pleasant, polite, and professional. I’ve been telling everyone about my great experience!”
