– In celebration of American Housing Month, First Community Bank of East TN has joined forces with the ABA Foundation for its ‘Unlocking Homeownership’ campaign this June. The campaign, inaugurally launched in 2024, seeks to respond to the nation’s housing challenges by helping promote homeownership education and counseling.
As a part of the campaign, First Community Bank of East TN will share tipsheets and other resources – throughout the month of June to help educate consumers on the homebuying process and guide existing homeowners on how to retain their homes.
“We know that for many Americans homeownership can often feel unattainable,” said Stephanie Lane, VP & Retail Lending Manager. “Our hope is that through this campaign, with consistent outreach and education, we can make this a goal within reach for our customers and communities.”
