Secured Loans in South Bend, IN
Borrow Against Your Savings
A secured loan is backed by something you already own. At PFCU, that means a share-secured personal loan, backed by your savings account or a certificate. It comes with lower payments and flexible terms.
Members choose this loan when they want to build credit or lower their rate, and they want to borrow responsibly while keeping their savings intact. It is a practical option when you have money set aside and would rather not spend it down to reach your next goal.
Our South Bend team will explain how the loan works and help you decide if it fits your situation before you commit to anything.
