Millions of Union Members Can Benefit From Wells Fargo Mortgage Program
Put more buyers into your homes with the Union Plus® Mortgage program, with financing provided by Wells Fargo Home Mortgage. This program offers unique benefits to active and retired union members along with their family members including spouses, domestic partners, parents, children, and stepchildren. The Union Plus Mortgage program is available to 60 national and international labor unions that represent 30,000 local unions and 12.5 million union members. Wells Fargo has proudly been a lender for this unique program since 2013.
When union families verify their eligibility and finance their home through Wells Fargo and the Union Plus Mortgage program, they can take advantage of several benefits.
The Mortgage Assistance Program provided by Union Plus provides no-interest loans or grants to eligible mortgage holders who experience a loss of income due to involuntary job loss, disability, furlough, strike or lockout to help make mortgage payments. Over the life of the mortgage assistance benefit, more than $12 million has been provided in assistance, saving thousands of members’ homes. This benefit is available to dues-paying union members, their parents and children who meet certain criteria.1
A My Mortgage GiftSM award - a $500 value when buying a home, or a $300 value for refinancing - is provided by Wells Fargo Home Mortgage after verified union members close on their home through the program and mention their eligibility.2
Veterans who purchase or refinance3 their primary residence through this program can apply for a $1,000 Veteran’s Grant from Union Plus4. Applications must be submitted to Union Plus within 120 days of closing. Terms and restrictions apply.
If any of your buyers happen to be union members, let’s work together. Our Wells Fargo team, together with Union Plus, is here to support you and your buyers with special home financing options and available benefits.
