BB&T has 72 branch offices stretching from Key West to Port St. Lucie, but this month the bank is going mobile to better reach South Florida customers.
A 40-foot recreational vehicle, retrofitted with computer stations and manned by mortgage and credit experts- from (Nation Wide Consumer Debt Relief Inc.) , is making daylong stops at businesses in Palm Beach and Miami-Dade counties.
Current and prospective BB&T customers are welcome to board the bus to get free credit counseling, credit reports, advice on loan modifications and help with financing to buy a home.
"Our goal is education, whether you're a first-time home buyer, someone looking to refinance, or someone not able to pay a loan," said Natalie Cwick, a BB&T representative.
This is the second visit to South Florida for the 3-year-old bus, which has toured other parts of the state. BB&T has 304 branch offices in Florida.
The Winston-Salem, N.C.-based company acquired Colonial Bank of Montgomery, Ala., in an FDIC-assisted deal in August 2009.
The move expanded the Fortune 500 company's reach, and the bus is designed to make it’s presence better known. On board are representatives of the Housing Leadership Council of Palm Beach County, which is helping match people with homes and financing.
One plan being touted is the federal Neighborhood Stabilization Program, which has awarded tens of millions of dollars to Palm Beach County and its municipal governments. The Lake Worth Community Redevelopment Agency, for example, has $23.3 million to buy and refurbish abandoned and foreclosed homes, and will then resell them to eligible buyers.
Financing for those homes is something BB&T representatives said they can help with.
"If you have reasonable credit, a job and buy within your means, nothing has really changed in terms of you being able to get financing," said Linda Merchant, a BB&T mortgage specialist.
Testimonial
"I realized I needed debt consolidation services when I
was declined for a car loan. My FICO score was too low to get
the financing. Nation Wide Consumer Debt Relief Inc. is helping
me raise my credit score by eliminating my credit card debt.
The representatives answered all my questions and were very
patient with me. I would recommend anyone use this company to
get out of debt today."
