First Community Bank is pleased to welcome Gwen Tish as a mortgage loan originator in the Mountain Home market. In her new role, Tish will assist homebuyers by prequalifying potential buyers, processing loan applications, and collecting the necessary documentation to ensure loan approvals. She will primarily serve Baxter, Marion, Stone, Fulton, and Izard counties.
“I feel extremely blessed to have the opportunity to help individuals and families achieve homeownership or refinance their existing loans,” said Tish. “Joining First Community Bank allows me to provide personalized mortgage solutions backed by a strong community-focused organization.”
She began her mortgage career in 1992 and has more than 30 years of experience in banking and mortgage lending. She has worked in various roles, including loan origination, processing, funding, and closing. Before joining First Community Bank, she served as a title company settlement agent.
“We are thrilled to have Gwen join our mortgage team,” said Steve Dunn, community president in Mountain Home for First Community Bank. “Her extensive experience and dedication to helping families secure home financing make her a great asset to our customers and the community.”
A graduate of Wynne High School, Tish also completed a computerized accounting course at Crowley Ridge Vo-Tech, which led to her first role in banking. Outside of work, she enjoys spending time with her husband of 32 years, Les, their two sons, and their seven grandchildren. She also loves glamping, hiking, kayaking, gardening, photography, and making memories with family and friends.
The First Community Bank Mountain Home branch at 310 Highway 62 East is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., with drive-through services available from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday, from 8:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on Fridays, and from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. on Saturdays.
