Cross Sell 

  • Talking Points — Using a home’s equity is often less expensive compared to credit cards or personal loans. Home equity is often used for such purposes as the following:
    • Paying for renovations to increase the value of the home
    • Consolidating debt into a single, lower-interest loan
    • Paying off student loans to reduce monthly payments and interest rates
    • Covering unexpected emergency expenses
  • Opportunity Box Code/Name — Mort | Mortgage
  • Referrals — assign to the Mortgage Department
