WOW Story: A Fresh Start Through Refinance in Port Orchard

Amanda came to our Port Orchard branch looking for help. She had two auto loans with other lenders, a mountain of medical expenses, and urgent repairs needed on her home’s roof. Her situation was overwhelming—but she didn’t know where to start.

She met with Amber, who took the time to listen and asked questions about the full scope of Amanda’s financial picture. Rather than simply offering a small personal loan, Amber worked with our lending team to refinance Amanda’s two existing auto loans into a single, more manageable payment. The lower rate and consolidated terms gave Amanda significant monthly savings.

With her new budget, Amanda could move forward with roof repairs without putting other financial obligations at risk! She left the branch relieved, grateful, and empowered. What started as a request for a small loan became a holistic solution that brought financial stability to her household.
