UPPER MARLBORO, Md., April 14, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- NASA Federal Credit Union (NASA FCU) has added two unique high loan-to-value (LTV) mortgages to its home loan portfolio of products and services.

The Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio is the amount of a first mortgage loan as a percentage of the total appraised value of the property being purchased or refinanced. High LTV mortgages aren't readily available from most financial institutions and in most cases, if available, require borrowers to purchase mortgage insurance. Both mortgages will save consumers hundreds, possibly thousands of dollars a year because Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI) is not required. Also, for new home purchases in the $650,000-$850,000 range, a 95 percent LTV mortgage with 5 percent down payment is available as is a 90 percent refinance option for current homeowners. These options are also available to new NASA Federal Credit Union members, including those not employed by NASA, who meet membership requirements.

"Changing times call for innovative and flexible mortgage products," said Doug Allman, President and CEO of NASA Federal Credit Union. "For a limited time, consumers can get additional flexibility and affordability with our two unique mortgages not readily available through other home lenders."
