“We did a refinance on our home with Casey & the team at Ennis State Bank and it was very seamless and we will be saving a ton of money over the loan duration. We are also over an hour away from the bank but they made all the paperwork easy & our closing was less than 10 minutes from our house. We also did a loan with them and again so simple and easy! The service is awesome and they really care about their customers!! You will get personalized service no matter what transactions you make! Highly recommend you contacting Casey to help with any of you banking needs!”

The process is always pain-free and with a personal feel; that is why ESB has always been my first call and will continue to be.”
