First Florida Credit Union Review
We have been with First Florida Credit Union or an affiliate for 30+ years. Over the past five years we have had to do some significant renovations on our home. As you can imagine that becomes very expensive. First, we did a kitchen remodeled. There was some water damage behind to wall that insurance would not cover so we decided to just do a total remodel. We worked with Dorothy to help us decide how to pay for this and the least amount of interest. Our home was almost paid for so she suggested that we establish a home equity line of credit (HELOC) for the renovations. Fortunately, she suggested that we set it up for more than we needed because the renovations resulted in more than we initially thought. That buffer allowed us to have the kitchen we wanted rather than just settling for average. The interest rates were low which make the monthly payments very easy to manage.
