President's Message

     Happy New Year! Reliance Bank is excited for 2013. Let me tell you why.

Reliance Bank is coming off its best year ever. In 2012 the bank grew by 12%, nearing $70MM in assets with a customer base of over 2,500 households. Recent history does not guarantee future success, but momentum creates great energy and we plan to ride the positive economic signs to make Reliance Bank an even better solution for your financial needs.

Interest rates remain low and provide great opportunity for small businesses and home mortgages. Although many small businesses continue to be cautious given the current economic environment, the cost of borrowing money for expansion or diversification is very attractive. We cannot remove all of the risk, but we encourage our customers and clients to bring us your ideas and plans and see if we can help you reach some of your goals.

Residential mortgage rates for purchase and refinance are very attractive. We would like to work with you and illustrate how you can save significant money with today’s rates. Reliance Bank will remain your mortgage loan service provider which means you call us for any and all mortgage questions. You won’t want to miss this opportunity to fix your mortgage at a historically low rate.

Reliance Bank is “Redefining Service”. What does this mean? Great customer service is an overused cliché that many businesses claim. We invite you to open an account and find out for yourself what differentiates Reliance Bank from our competition.  We strive to treat our customers with the time and respect they deserve – even in this fast paced world of profit at the expense of good customer relations.

So let us recap our message on Reliance Bank. We have the momentum, low interest rate environment and customer service second to none. When you combine this with an improving economy you have great reason to be excited about 2013! Wouldn’t you agree? Will you join Reliance Bank? Call us today!
