First Community Realty seamlessly integrates financial and real estate services. As a Credit Union Service Organization (CUSO) wholly owned by First Community Credit Union, this realty arm originated from the credit union's vision of becoming a 'one-stop' shop for its members' home-buying needs.
 
Established in September 2021, First Community Realty swiftly embraced the real estate landscape under the leadership of its CEO, Kristen Bland, appointed in August 2021. The team embarked on creating robust operating systems and policies, culminating in a grand opening in March 2022. Today, with over 55 agents scattered across the metropolitan area, First Community Realty provides clients with the same level of service their members have come to expect from their credit union. 
 
Specializing in both residential and commercial properties, First Community Realty positions itself as a reliable partner with professional resources and tools designed to successfully and affordably manage the process of both buying and selling homes. Their commitment to clients goes beyond the ordinary, with agents often exceeding expectations and providing invaluable support throughout the entire process – from document navigation to understanding timelines and lending intricacies.
