In the McAllen Monitor’s 2024 Readers’ Choice Awards Contest, TRB was voted “Favorite Bank”, and TRB Mortgage “Favorite Mortgage.” This is the third year in a row TRB Mortgage has won “Favorite Mortgage” and the first year TRB has won “Favorite Bank.”
TRB Wins Favorite Bank
Just as TRB in Harlingen was named “Best Bank” by readers of Valley Morning Star, it is deeply meaningful that readers of The Monitor have voted to recognize TRB as their favorite bank. The most significant aspect in such recognition is not merely the acknowledgment of TRB, but the celebration of the TRB teams within the branches—each of the dedicated individuals who provide personalized banking solutions and exceptional customer experiences to the people they serve.
The TRB teams at McColl, 10th Street, and 23rd Street branches are exemplary brand standards for the bank. Their commitment to being ‘the people you know’ in their community is the source of their recognition. Jamie Brown-Rosas, TRB’s Senior Vice President and Chief Community and Business Development Officer, shared that, “Receiving an award from a community of our peers is a distinct honor. It reflects the trust and respect each of these teams have earned from those who truly understand the impact of their daily effort. This award is a testament to their hard work, professionalism, and the genuine connections they build with the people they serve every day.”
TRB Mortgage Wins Favorite Mortgage Company
While TRB in McAllen has been voted Favorite Bank in 2024, TRB Mortgage has earned the award three years running. Prioritizing an exceptional client experience, TRB Mortgage in McAllen makes it their business to help borrowers turn dreams of homeownership into reality by innovating and diversifying their mortgage products, supporting first-time homebuyers with down-payment assistance, and growing access to homeownership for all communities.
Jason Leal, TRB’s Executive Vice President and Chief Experience Officer, expressed his appreciation for the efforts of the TRB Mortgage team and commented on their most recent award, saying, “A mortgage is likely to be the largest investment an individual or family will make. We are mindful that each transaction is uniquely personal, and we are dedicated to provide a personalized experience that reflects TRB’s commitment to the community. No matter how many awards the mortgage team has earned or will earn, those that come directly from our community are particularly personal and more meaningful.”
