Home Loans Designed To Benefit You

Along with conventional mortgages, some of our specialized loan products include:

Types of Home Loans Available

In addition to conventional mortgages, Central State Bank provides options that make homeownership more accessible. Our loan products can help you buy with less money down, lower your mortgage payments, or secure better mortgage rates.

Fixed Rate and Adjustable-Rate Loans

We offer both fixed-rate mortgages (FRMs) and adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs) in various term lengths. Fixed-rate loans provide stability with consistent payments, while adjustable-rate loans typically start with a lower rate that changes over time.

First-Time Home Buyer Loans

As a leading mortgage lender in Iowa, we aim to make your first home purchase a smooth experience. You won’t need a mortgage broker; our Loan Officers are here to guide you through every step, helping you understand what you can afford and exploring down payment resources, loan types, and assistance programs. Our dedicated lending staff, who live and work in the local community, pride themselves on providing exceptional service throughout the entire loan process.

Home Loans for Veterans

We proudly support our veterans with specialized Veterans Affairs (VA) home loans. Our offerings include fixed-rate conventional loans for active-duty personnel, reservists, and veterans. Both purchase and refinancing loans can provide up to 100% financing at competitive rates. To learn more about veteran home loans, visit the Federal VA website.

USDA Home Loans

Central State Bank also offers USDA home loans, which are designed for low- to moderate-income families in rural areas. These loans typically require no down payment and feature competitive interest rates, making it easier to achieve homeownership in eligible locations.

FHA Loans

Our FHA loans are another great option, particularly for first-time buyers. These loans have lower down payment requirements and more flexible credit guidelines, allowing you to qualify for financing with less hassle. FHA loans are backed by the Federal Housing Administration, providing peace of mind as you embark on your journey to homeownership.

Refinance A Mortgage With Us

If you have an unfavorable mortgage on your existing home, our lending professionals can provide mortgage refinance options to help you get a better home loan. Whether you need to transition from an adjustable-rate mortgage to a fixed-rate mortgage or you are seeking better loan terms to help lower your monthly payments, we can help make owning your home easier.

Work With A Local Iowa Bank That Understands You

As a local banking institution, we understand the unique needs of our community. Our dedicated team of mortgage experts will work closely with you to assess your financial situation and homeownership goals and explain various loan options to help you choose the best fit. We will guide you through the application process with clarity and transparency and provide ongoing support and advice, even after your loan closes. Whether you are in the market for a traditional 30-year fixed-rate mortgage, refinancing to get a lower interest rate, or hoping to qualify for an advantageous program (such as VA loans or USDA loans), we can help you!
