Meet the People You’ll Work With
brArundel Federal Savings Bank really is a different kind of bank.
brAs a mutual savings bank, Arundel Federal doesn’t have shareholders. Arundel Federal returns its profits to its Maryland borrowers and depositors by offering highly competitive interest rates on both loans and deposits.
brArundel Federal has always done business this way. President George Behr, Jr. says, “Arundel Federal remains true to our original founders’ vision established in 1906 by making individual credit evaluations of each borrower. We don’t use a cookie-cutter approach to lending. We match the right mortgage loan to each borrower so that the borrower buys a home they can afford and once the loan is made we continue to serve the borrower through the life of their loan. This traditional approach to lending has served Arundel Federal and its borrowers well. Despite the market tumult of the past years, Arundel Federal has never stopped making loans. Using the bank’s strong capital base to fund customer dreams of homeownership is reflected in the bank’s advertising statement of “Your Vision. Our Strength.”
brCredit for Arundel’s remarkable record of service to its borrowers goes to the lending team at Arundel Federal. Each Arundel Federal residential loan originator has a depth of knowledge that allows them to counsel borrowers and consider each borrower’s unique financial situation.
brArundel Federal uses the money that it takes in from local deposits to make local loans. This long-term commitment to local deposit growth and local lending means that Arundel Federal’s lenders have the flexibility to consider all aspects of a borrower’s situation and to look for ways to make good loans. A major benefit to customers is that they always deal with a local person who understands the challenges borrowers face and lenders who create practical financial solutions to meet customer needs. After the loan is made, Arundel Federal provides local customer service through the life of the loan when customers have questions about their loan payments, escrow accounts, year-end statements or other loan-related questions. Arundel Federal also helps borrowers by financing home improvements with traditional second mortgages and home equity loans.
brThe bank’s website (www.arundelfederal.com) accepts online applications and provides loan calculators, current loan rates and mortgage information. Loan originators are also available to accept applications at any one of the bank’s six offices.
brArundel Federal Savings Bank is a Member FDIC and an Equal Housing Lender.
Commercial Real Estate Lending the Arundel Way
brArundel Federal Savings Bank should be your first call when purchasing or improving your commercial real estate property. Use the experienced lending team at Arundel Federal to help evaluate the options for financing your project at the lowest cost possible and in the shortest possible time.
brCommercial real estate transactions are often complex and involve substantial commitments of time and capital. A commercial real estate financing package includes issues of interest rate, loan term, guarantees, insurance and a host of other issues that must be evaluated by both the borrower and the lender. At many banks this process can drag out over an extended period of time. At Arundel Federal, our experienced lending team can generally complete a financing package and make a decision in far less time than our more bureaucratic competitors. Our ability to make prompt decisions allows our customers to begin their projects earlier and faster. And, since time is money, quicker decisions by the bank mean that the return on your project’s investment begins sooner.
brA key factor in Arundel’s ability to make prompt decisions on commercial real estate deals is the depth of local knowledge that our lending team has. Arundel Federal only makes loans in Maryland and the majority of those loans are in the greater Anne Arundel County area. This benefits our borrowers since the collective experience of our lending team contains an in-depth knowledge of local business conditions, local real estate values and local growth areas…all of which we put to work for you. This depth of local knowledge greatly contributes to the speed with which commercial real estate deals are moved through the decision process.
brExamples of the kinds of loans that Arundel Federal’s lenders have completed include:
