In the future, your can compare options with Fidelity’s Tax Equivalent bond calculator. For reference:

  • Certificate of Deposit - bank CDs and savings accounts, federally and state taxable
  • Treasury - federally taxable, state tax free
  • in-state municipal - federal and state tax free

The number is the return you’d need for each type of bond to be equivalent after taxes. Your loan is a tax free return, so consider it as a Treasury bond.
