A special Thank you to our WONDERFUL breakfast sponsors on this past Thursday! Thank you Elena Reed, Jackie McMahon and the newest member of their team, Linda Blanton! – Third Federal Savings & Loan
We’re Strong, Stable and Safe.
We’re Third Federal Savings and Loan. We’re known for our Guaranteed Lowest mortgage rates. We’re also the bank that doesn’t believe in putting customers at risk through questionable loan practices like sub-prime lending and zero-down mortgages.
As a conscientious lender, we simply believe that taking care of people, and putting them in the best position to achieve their dreams, is the best way for us to take care of our business. Without loyal customers, we wouldn’t be the lending leader that we are today. That’s why our customers will always be our first priority.
