“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.”
“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!”
“After 20 years of business with another credit union, my Home Equity Line of Credit term ended. When I tried to renew it, I was told 'I could re-apply' and was bombarded with 50 requirements to prove I could be trusted, even though I'd never had a late payment. When I walked into a brand new Citadel that opened near by, the staff (who were total strangers) treated me like an old friend. After a basic credit inquiry, I had my new HELOC, as well as three other new accounts (at better rates)! When I closed my old account, I let my former lender know how warmly I was treated by Citadel! ”
“I switched to Citadel when I was in search of a loan to switch my home mortgage company. Citadel was the only one to accommodate me. They saved me money, which was great! After my wonderful experience with the mortgage process, I switched all my accounts over to Citadel. They have been super to me in all aspects of transactions and I am very pleased when I enter the bank, I feel like it's family.”
“I just wanted to say ‘thank you’ to Citadel’s Mortgage Team for all of their work at to get our mortgage taken care of. Everything with our signing went through without a hitch. We are almost all moved in! ”
