“Scott and Jess at the Hope branch are excellent and attentive professionals.”

“I tried unsuccessfully for six weeks to secure a PPP loan through another bank where I have my business account. They were not helpful at all, and it was difficult to even get anyone to speak with me. Communication was lacking, to say the least. So I decided to try to get the loan through First Hope Bank, where I conduct all of my personal banking. That ended up being a fantastic decision. Deena Smith made sure I knew exactly what was needed from me, and she always returned phone calls and emails very quickly. The entire process was completed within three days, which was incredible. The people at First Hope are extremely professional and they really took the time to help me through the entire process.”
