FREE LOAN CHECK–UPs<br />
DURING LOAN AWARENESS DAYS<br />
Are you certain you have the best rates on your mortgage and consumer<br />
loans with other lenders? Not knowing could cost you hundreds and even<br />
thousands of dollars in unnecessary interest over the life of your loans.<br />
We invite you to visit us at select branches during our Loan Awareness Days<br />
to speak with specialists from our real estate and consumer loan departments.<br />
Let us conduct a complimentary loan “check-up” to quickly see if you can save<br />
money by refinancing your non-<strong>SchoolsFirst</strong> FCU loans with us. Just bring<br />
along information about your current mortgage, vehicle, or other personal loan<br />
and we’ll do the rest.<br />
