Franklin Bank “American Dream” Program Helps First-Time Home Buyers Afford a House

From Franklin Bank

We have all heard the phrase “The American Dream” tied to home ownership. Why is that so? Ironically, Franklin Bank had a part in the creation of that idea. Back in 1861, when our country was beginning to experience the unrest of the Civil War, a group of thoughtful Salem County citizens quietly met to form “The Franklin Loan and Building Association of Salem, New Jersey.” The sole purpose of this association was to provide mortgage financing and make dreams come true.

For the last 163 years Franklin has maintained the belief that home ownership instills a sense of pride and accomplishment. We understand, however, that the first venture into buying a home can evoke a feeling of uneasiness about affordability and credit. That’s where we come in with The First Time Home Buyer Dream Program.

The program provides up to $20,000 in grant money and our lending staff takes you step-by-step through the mortgage process. We answer all your questions – even the ones you are afraid to ask. Our team will take as much time as you need to help you complete the application and figure out the best payment options.

Home ownership is an investment in your future. It provides stability, privacy and growth possibilities that you don’t get from renting. Take the first step by getting pre-qualified, at absolutely no cost, online at www.franklinbnk.com. The process is quick and simple and could lead to your own personal American Dream. For questions reach out to any local branch office or call 856-769-4400.
