We make the refinancing process easy. Read about some recent experiences our clients have had with us!
A banking client, T.J., had a car loan with a competitor. He had sent an electronic check from First Midwest for his monthly payment, only to be told it was never received. The dispute continued for a month and the company began initiating collections calls.
In distress, T.J. reached out to a First Midwest Banker, who was able to confirm that the payment had been sent. Our Banker then personally called the competitor, found the person in charge, and provided documentation of T.J.’s payment. Within 45 minutes the situation was resolved.
Frustrated with his experience with a competitor, T.J. was open to hearing about First Midwest’s auto refinance options. It turned out, we offered him a loan that fit his needs far better. By refinancing to First Midwest, T.J. was able to lower his monthly payment by nearly $160.
And it all started by reaching out to a First Midwest Banker.
A banking client, Kim, had an auto loan with a competitor, with an interest rate over 20%. When talking with a First Midwest Banker, she explained that when she applied, she had no credit score. That was the best rate she could get.
Our Banker suggested she put in a refinance application with First Midwest and see what happens – since she’d been making her car payments on time for a year, she had likely built up a decent credit score.
It turned out, she qualified for a rate with First Midwest that was more than 15 percentage points lower – and she could save over $250 a month in payments if she selected the longest term available. She ultimately chose a loan with a shorter term; she still received substantial monthly savings while reducing her overall interest costs and speeding up her payoff date.
And it all started with a simple conversation with a First Midwest Banker.
Even if you’ve been previously declined, it may be worth another shot.
James, a First Midwest client, had put in an application to refinance in October. He was declined because he owed more than his car was worth. However, First Midwest has since updated its loan-to-value ratio guidelines – we now can refinance clients who owe more than their car is worth.
A First Midwest Banker knew of James’ situation and encouraged him to reapply – he might be approved this time. And, in fact, he was! He lowered his rate by nearly nine percentage points, and saved $105 per month on his payments.
All thanks to reapplying after we expanded our credit guidelines.
Save money on interest if you refinance to a better rate. You could also lower your monthly payment, or shorten your term to speed up your payoff date. It’s up to you!
We have expanded our approval criteria, so don’t be shy about applying!
