Ohio Valley Bank Unveils Online Mortgage Center

GALLIPOLIS, Ohio?Tom Wiseman, President and CEO of Ohio Valley Bank, recently announced the launch of the online OVB Mortgage Center. The Center is accessible from Ohio Valley Bank’s website at www.ovbc.com.

With the OVB Mortgage Center, consumers can submit a mortgage application online in minutes. Each applicant is paired with an experienced Ohio Valley Bank lender, and all decisions are made locally.

A special feature of the OVB Mortgage Center is Rate Watch. With Rate Watch, the user can earmark a certain rate, and the Center will alert them by email when the rate becomes available. Consumers can also use Rate Watch to receive rate updates by email on a regular basis.

The OVB Mortgage Center also provides consumers with real-time rates, resources, and calculators for informed decisions about home financing. The Center’s intuitive calculators were designed with the consumer in mind. Local bankers predict that some of the more popular calculators will be “How Much Can I Save with a 15 Year Mortgage?”, “Should I Buy a Home or Continue to Rent?”, or “Should I Consider Consolidating my Debt with a va cash out refinance?”

With the internet proving to be a more and more popular destination for managing finances, it makes sense that mortgages can be organised entirely online. What hasn’t changed though is the need for a good credit score. Nonetheless, from a quick browse online, people hoping to improve their current credit score can take a look at reviews done by repair.credit for a good place to start. The sites listed are even able to provide information to help people avoid future credit problems that could affect mortgage payments.

Jennifer Osborne, OVB Senior Vice President, Retail Lending Group, commented, “The OVB Mortgage Center is truly the best of both worlds. It offers the convenience and speed of emerging technologies at the big banks matched with the service and support of hometown lenders from your community bank.”

Ohio Valley Bank, established in 1872, is a FDIC-insured community bank operating 14 offices in southern Ohio and western West Virginia. Shares of Ohio Valley Banc Corp. stock are available on The NASDAQ Global Market under the symbol, OVBC. Learn more about Ohio Valley Bank at www.ovbc.com.
