When our recent condo purchase nearly fell apart at the eleventh hour, George and the team at First Carolina Bank truly came to the rescue. We were just one week away from closing when our original mortgage broker realized they couldn’t secure financing due to the property’s unique “condotel” deed restrictions and HOA requirements.Enter George.We were introduced to him by a trusted local Morehead City developer who highly recommended First Carolina Bank for specialized condotel financing. Within hours of my (admittedly desperate!) call, George was on it—assessing the situation, offering a realistic path forward, and providing clear communication every step of the way.He and his team moved mountains to keep our deal alive, helped us preserve our relationship with the seller, and delivered a level of service that was nothing short of exceptional.From now on, I know exactly who I’ll be recommending first when it comes to condo and condotel financing in coastal North Carolina. Thank you, George—you’re the reason we made it to the closing table!
