Raleigh NC local bank recommendations for loans

[Brandon McCraney]

I am looking for recommendations with a local/community bank in the Raleigh, NC area to discuss loan options and possibly start a long term business relationship. Anyone having success in this area that they could share?

Any insight is greatly appreciated!

@Michael Jobe @Daniel Nicely - thanks for the referrals.

@Andrew S - this is a conventional loan.

I have read several posts where a local bank is recommended as a starting point to obtain more loans. When I think of local, a community bank or credit union comes to mind as oppoosed to large banks -- Fidelity, BOA, etc. Has anyone experienced a difference between the large banks with local branch offices and local based credit unions/community banks?

Thanks so much for the info!
