Tips from Mooresville Branch Manager Jacob Theobald
As the branch manager at Citizens Bank’s Mooresville office, I get to help customers with a wide variety of needs and banking products, but what I love doing the most is helping customers with auto loans. After all, buying a vehicle is such an exciting time for people! I wish more customers knew about the many ways we can support their vehicle dreams. Here are some tips, support, and services we provide to help get them behind the wheel and on their way down the road!
We can help with new and used car sales
We can finance both scenarios. People may not come in for help on lower-priced or used vehicle sales because they don’t want to “waste our time,” but that is what we’re here for, and we definitely can share what loan options are available. We want to help every single person we serve and are always available to sit down with a customer and discuss their goals.
You don’t always need perfect credit
We’re wonderful at troubleshooting and being creative if credit is an issue. If a loan were to be denied, we can work with a customer to improve their credit or suggest different strategies such as getting a parent or relative as a co-signer to help make financing a reality.
We offer personalized service
Even before you go out vehicle shopping, we always urge customers to check with us first. Before getting financing elsewhere, it’s important to realize our biggest advantage is our service. When you work with your local banker, you’ll know the people who are handling the loan, and who you should contact if you have any questions or concerns. We can even help you set up automatic loan payments out of a Citizens Bank checking account, which not only will make payments a breeze – but customers with Citizens Bank automatic payments save .25% on your loan rate.
