Home Improvement Loans

Loan rates that decrease as your project costs increase.

Whether you intend to build an extension, convert the attic, get a new kitchen or bathroom, fix that leaky roof or revamp your garden; we have a Home Improvement Loan rate to suit you.

Small Home Improvement Loans for projects up to €9,999 are at our standard personal loan interest rate of 9.9% (APR 10.4%).  Term up to 5 years

Large Home Improvement Loans for projects between €10,000 and €19,999 are at a special reduced rate of 8.2% (APR 8.5%). Term up to 10 years

Great Rate Loan for projects between €20,000 and €75,000 are at the Great Rate of 6.2% (APR 6.38%). Term 5 – 10 years

If you have no mortgage on your home, you can take out a secured loan for home improvements for projects between €30,000 and €350,000. This secured loan will require a legal 1st charge on the property and would be classified as a Mortgage (4.9% nominal rate – APR 5%)

Here’s what makes our Home Improvement Loans up to €75,000 different:

  • Loans are insured by the Credit Union’s Loan Protection Insurance at no extra cost.  This gives you the comfort of knowing that your family will not be left with the burden of loan repayments in the event of you passing away.
  • No stipulation to have a CU current account, repay from a  CU current account or have your wages paid directly to your CU account.
  • No administration fees or hidden charges.
  • Interest is charged on your reducing loan balance so your repayments are based on what is actually outstanding.
  • Cashback on your loan interest paid is a possibility – if there is enough CU surplus available at the end of the financial year & approved at AGM, we will apply it to Home Improvement Loans up to €75,000, further reducing the interest rate you pay.
