cuofco-mortgage-rate-check's Introduction

Archived

This project is archived as of early 2024 because I created the more generic mortgage-rate-checker. When I archived this project, it still worked properly, but won't be actively maintained any longer.

Credit Union of Colorado Mortgage Interest Rate Checker

Automatically check mortgage interest rates at the Credit Union of Colorado (CUofCO), and notify through Telegram.

Motivation

I want to stay updated about interest rates, so I know whether to refinance my mortgage or not.
