5.60% 24-Month / 5.50% 12-Month CD at a New York Bank (LibertyPointe)

Jul 25, 2007 - 8:42 AM by Ken Tumin

LibertyPointe Bank is offering 5.60% APY on a 2 and 3 year certificate of deposit. There's also a 5.50% APY 1 year CD. The minimum deposit is $1,000. These rates also apply to IRA's.

My last report on this bank was in May. At that time the 2 and 3 year CDs had yields of 5.50%.

According to the website, the rates are only for customers in New York, New Jersey are Connecticut.

LibertyPointe Bank is a small, one-office branch located in New York city. The bank is FDIC insured (FDIC Certificate # 58071). It was establised in 2005.

I don't care much for the bank as per say; but they do have another branch in Boro Park Brooklyn. They are a small bank and i wouldn't keep any amount over the FDIC limit if I was to open an account there.

I previously requested a CD account application from a CSR at this bank, which I never received. My experience with Liberty Pointe seems to be consistent with the tenor of the other comments posted regarding this bank.
