Banks in Farmville, VA

“What comes to mind with Benchmark Community Bank is staff accessibility, and I was very impressed with my visit to this branch this morning. Thankfully, I was able to speak with VP/ Market Leader Cheryl Gee and Mortgage Loan Officer Christine Amos. I am grateful for them spending about 25 minutes of their time with me to give an overview of what their lending process involves. Both of these loan officials were exceptionally helpful! For example, I learned that both in house and secondary market mortgage lending are available at Benchmark. For customer convenience, an online loan application process also is available. As an associate broker with Piedmont Real Estate at 102 High Street in Farmville, I am reaching out to local banks about Farmville real estate lending to find out more about their different loan programs for purchasing new construction and resale properties. Visiting Benchmark Community Bank this morning was very worthwhile for me, and I look forward to working with this bank in the very near future!”

“The staff here is super friendly. The location is very convenient, you have to drive around the building to use the ATM or go through the drive thru but there's plenty of room. I love how the drive thru has cameras so you can see who you are talking to. The inside of the bank is very clean and usually isn't very busy, so you can get to a teller right away.”

“I joined Wells Fargo about 1 year ago.I have been under tremendous financial stress (for much longer than a year), and they were very helpful in providing me options and going out of their way to help me. Most of my time was with Davey Ball, who proved to be very knowledgeable, caring, and down to earth. Best banking experience in recent memory.”

“This afternoon I was blessed to meet with Farmville Branch Manager Anabelle Rodriguez-Thurston to discuss some lending programs being offered to prospective homebuyers. The personal touch offered by this bank meant a lot to me, and I am pleased to offer brochures in our Farmville real estate office from this bank as well as some from other local banks in Farmville. Sometimes community banks may have the flexibility to offer bit more leniency in the pre-approval process. It depends on a variety of factors to be discussed privately with a loan officer. Any loan pre-approval here or at any other lending institutions happens on a case by case basis.”

“Since this particular Benchmark Community Bank branch is very close to our real estate office, I just walked there this afternoon to open a new personal checking account. As long as I’m careful to follow the guidelines for this particular type of account, I definitely will come out ahead financially. For example, counting 10 debit card transactions a month is easy to do. I also happen to prefer using e-statements instead of paper, so that requirement works for me! Danielle Jones at Benchmark was a huge help with expediting the process for opening this account. I highly recommend checking to see if Benchmark could work out for you!”

“My was was hacked. The fraud department blocked my card. I couldn’t get through, went to this branch and Christina was amazing. She was very professional and help me with everything I needed. Thank you Christina”
