Greetings!    

 

New Services Designed to Make Things Easier for You!
  
In this issue, you'll find some new services we've recently introduced for the purpose of making things easier for you.
 
The first is our new Auto Advisors service. The Tampa Bay Federal advisor will help you locate and negotiate the new car deal you want. Our advisor, Steve Snow, is your advocate and his assistance to you is free as a Tampa Bay Federal member.
 
The second is another advocate--for home buying and selling. The CU Home Advantage program will assign an advocate to you to assist throughout your buying, selling, and moving process. And, again, this is a free service to you as a Tampa Bay Federal member. Read more about these below and visit us online any time for more information or to get started.
 
And, as always, we're working hard to make things easier for you, with pleasure.

Home & Family Finance"The simple question--will it cost more to rent than to buy--does not have a simple answer."

  

In fact, home prices are generally down, mortgage interest rates are low, and rents are rising. However not everyone is cut out for the do-it-yourself aspect of keeping up a property. Plus, credit scores, debt ratios, and job stability all play a role in whether to rent or buy.  

 

This month's Financial Fitness Challenge offers more information on this tricky subject, plus some calculators that will weigh in on the decision. Check out this month's Financial Fitness Challenge, register, and you could win $50!
