PVF Capital is the holding company for Park View Federal Savings Bank, which operates some 20 offices in Cleveland and northeastern Ohio. Founded in 1920, the thrift offers such standard retail banking services as checking, savings, money market, NOW accounts, CDs, and IRAs. Commercial real estate loans account for about a quarter of the company's loan portfolio; single- to four-family residential mortgages make up another quarter. The company also writes home equity, construction, multifamily mortgage, and land loans. In 2007 fellow Ohio-based bank United Community Financial announced plans to buy PVF Capital, but both parties terminated the deal when it was not completed by an agreed-upon closing date.
