Help with the responsibilities of owning a home

Home Manager Account
This account helps you manage home-related expenses. A fixed portion of your income like your paycheck or Social Security is directly deposited into your Home Manager Account. Payments such as mortgage payments, utility bills and other home expenses are made automatically from your Home Manager Account, providing peace-of-mind.4
Old National Checking Account
The remainder of your income can be deposited into an Old National checking account, so you can pay the rest of your expenses such as groceries, clothing, car insurance and more. Use an Old National debit card5 or checks to pay for these expenses from your checking account.
