Economical
Home Loan Plan
Savings and home financing institutions like ours
originated the “amortized” hotoie p&yihflnt fchm many
years ago. This safe, easy plan of paying for a home
reduces the mortgage gradually over a period of years,
until it is completely cancelled.
Costly mortgage renewals are unnecessary. Our
plan gives you a low-cost, worry-free method of financ
ing and enjoying home-ownership. Interest is comput
ed monthly on the unpaid loan balance; therefore, int
erest paid is reduced every time a payment is made.
If you plan to buy, build or remodel a home, or* re-'
finance an old mortgage, we invite you to come here
for money or advice.
