Making Island Homeownership More Accessible

Owning a home on San Juan Island can feel out of reach. At The Grove, we have worked to create financing opportunities that help make homeownership more attainable for qualified buyers.

Through partnerships with trusted lenders and local programs, buyers may have access to lower fixed mortgage rates and additional funding opportunities designed to support homeownership in our community.

We work with two preferred lending partners, depending on how you plan to use your home at The Grove.

Primary and Second Home Financing:

For buyers purchasing a primary residence or second home, we can connect you with Gesa Credit Union. Current home loan specials include 10/10 ARM rates as low as 4.99% with 5.76% APR, available for purchase transactions on primary and second homes, with features that may include as little as 3% down, loan amounts up to $3 million, and a rate reset every 10 years.
