Updated 2020 Third Quarter Interest Rate Options for Qualifying PIDA Loan Applications

​These rates are in effect for loan applications received through September 30, 2020.​

For Real estate loans financing eligible land and building costs, borrowers will have the following interest rate options:

For term loans with a regular amortization;

  1. Fixed interest rate for the full term of the loan (up to a 15-yr. period), set at the current 10-year treasury yield + 100 basis points. Based on the current 10-year treasury yield, the fixed rate option is 1.75% for the life of the loan.
  2. Fixed interest rate for a seven (7) year period set at the 10-year treasury yield. After seven years, the rate will reset to the then-current 10-year treasury yield. Please note, the reset rate is limited to a 200 basis point increase/decrease. The reset rate is then fixed for the duration of the loan. Based on the current 10-year treasury yield, the rate for the initial (7) year period is 0.75%.

For 10-year term loans with a 20-year amortization period;

  1. Fixed interest rate for the full term of the loan (10-yr. period). This option is calculated using the 10-year treasury yield +100 basis points. Based on the current 10-year treasury yield, the fixed rate option is 1.75% for the life of the loan.
  2. Fixed interest rate for a five (5) year period set at the 10-year treasury yield. After five years, the rate will reset to the then-current 10-year treasury yield. Please note, the reset rate is limited to a 200 basis point increase/decrease. The reset rate is then fixed for the duration of the loan. Based on the current 10-year treasury yield, the rate for the initial (5) year period is 0.75%.
