BB&T aids homeowner's finance mortgages
At a time when mortgage clients need it most, BB&T Corporation's retail mortgage operation is helping current and potential homeowners with their mortgage financing needs.
Last year BB&T originated more than 72,500 retail mortgage loans, a 97 percent increase over 2008. That figure includes 53,500 refinanced mortgages and 19,000 new mortgages.
BB&T also closed 6,600 loans worth nearly $1.3 billion under the Homeowners Affordability and Stability Plan to help keep families in their homes.
"More homeowners and potential homeowners than ever before continue to turn to BB&T for their mortgage loans," according to the manager of BB&T's Mortgage Lending unit. "They come to us for great service, and because they want the peace of mind that comes from working with a company that is truly interested in their long-term financial success."
