Bank of America has the best online banking and online bill pay system, super easy to use. I online bill pay everything, never go back to stamps and envelopes. Personal checking with online bill pay is free if you sign up online with low min deposit, no fee checking. Business checking is free with 10G deposit.
Wells Fargo is very solid and business oriented. If you want a business credit line, WF is worth an inquiry. I almost never look at my WF account online because BOA is so much easier to use.
Local business stuff, try looking for the right person, bank branch manager, someone you can buy lunch and pick their brain. Find the right guy and you would be surprised how much they know, especially about local real estate. Who the owners are, who the buyers are, what properties are moving or in distress. They know what the sale prices are because they know how much they would lend on it.
