New Britain, CT -- May 2, 2003 – The McCue Mortgage Company announced today that based on figures released by the Connecticut Housing Finance Authority (CHFA) the Company was ranked the number one CHFA mortgage lender in the State in the first quarter of 2003.

The CHFA program provides homeownership opportunities to low- and moderate-income families throughout the State. Qualified borrowers must fit the Authority’s criteria in order to participate in the program, including loan and income limits. Borrowers benefit from low interest rates (presently set at 4.75%), an easy lending process, and low down payments. It offers homeownership opportunities to those who might not benefit from conventional lending programs.

“The CHFA program has helped put thousands of Connecticut families in homes over the years; families who may not have considered owning a home if it weren’t for this unique program,” said William J. McCue, president of the McCue Mortgage Company. “The State of Connecticut is fortunate to have such a program. It is the envy of other States around the Nation.”
