The company will release a weekly video series and share a variety of
online financial education content designed to give people a clear view
of the considerations involved in buying a home.
"Buying a home is about more than a financial transaction. It's about
choosing the right place to raise your family, to celebrate new
beginnings and to put down roots in your community," said Logan Pichel,
head of Consumer Lending at Regions. "At the same time, the costs and
credit needs associated with homeownership can seem overwhelming,
especially to first-time buyers. At Regions, we have useful tools and
information to help people successfully prepare for homeownership by
understanding the process and how they can achieve their dream of owning
a home. This is our area of expertise. We are here to help you through
the process. And the insights we have gained over time are just a click
away for anyone who wants to learn more."
Each week in June, Regions will release brief videos through social
media and YouTube that provide overviews on topics such as saving for a
down payment and ways homebuyers can protect their investment in a new
home.
The brief videos will be complemented by more in-depth content online.
Through the Insights
section of Regions.com, consumers can learn about topics such as improving
their credit score in anticipation of homeownership, planning for closing
costs and other expenses associated with buying a home, options
to consider when financing a home and more.
The Insights articles are available to anyone, regardless of whether the
consumer banks with Regions. Further, Regions branch locations are
equipped with comprehensive homeownership materials to help people learn
about their options and decide whether now is the right time to pursue
homeownership.
"National Homeownership Month offers a great opportunity to speak with
people about the resources and information Regions makes available to
consumers," Pichel said. "And our commitment to providing this
information is year-round. We believe in the benefits that homeownership
offers our customers and our communities. And when a prospective
homebuyer is ready to take their next step, we are here with advice,
guidance and education that can help."
