Over the years I've had the misfortune of having to deal with banks like Chase, Wells Fargo, US…read moreBank Etc., that charged you a fee for everything. I'm surprised they didn't charge you a fee to open the door and walk inside. When I finally got fed up with all of that I decided to switch to a credit union. The first credit union that I joined which I shall not name here started out as a really good institution. Over the years however that particular credit union deteriorated into something that was more like a bank leaving me frustrated once again looking for solutions. I finally stumbled upon 1st community credit union. Immediately I began to notice a difference in the way I was treated with dignity, civility and respect. Not only did 1st community credit union care about saving me money but they were actually interested in helping me to invest and make more money. This was a big change for me. I then convinced my parents to switch over and then my siblings and finally my friends. Since that time all those years ago there's been an occasional bobble here and there but it was always resolved quickly and efficiently. Nobody's perfect. That includes organizations. But as organizations go, I would have to definitely say that 1st community credit union strives harder than any institution I have seen in the past to act responsibly with kindness and respect to the people they serve. That puts them ahead of all the rest. And, you know who I am referring to. I don't need to list all of them. If you're looking for an institution to park your funds in I don't think that you could do much better than 1st Community Credit Union. One thing I can also say for certain about them is that their rates of return on CDs are extremely competitive. If however you are not an investor and you just want a simple, checking account or savings account you really should consider them.

Finding the right house was not easy! With everything going on it was critical to see houses asap…read moreand make sure we were updated with the available houses that met our criteria. Mathew was there every step of the way. We found a few houses and made a couple offers. Mathew was great at making sure that we were putting in competitve offers without having to just increase our price! He was also there when the mortgage broker that we decided to go with bailed on us. If it wasn't for Mathew and his connections we would not have gotten a mortgage in time for the house we finally found and had an offer accepted on. He was able to call in a favor with a competing mortgage broker to get our horrible mortgage broker to finish things up in time. If you want to find your perfect house and you want to navigate through the epic task of finding, offering, negotiating, and closing with someone that knows the area, has brilliant connections, and is an overwhelmingly pleasant person then call Mathew. My wife and I are eternally grateful for what he did for us. Thank you Mathew!
