Company History
Seattle-based family- and employee-owned HomeStreet Bank is one of the largest privately-owned banks in the Northwest and Hawaii. HomeStreet began in 1921 as Continental Mortgage and Loan Company, providing single family and commercial real estate loans for Seattle’s developing communities. The company grew to meet customer needs and, in 1928, began offering insurance services. HomeStreet added consumer banking in 1986 with the opening of Continental Savings Bank. In 2000, Continental changed its name to HomeStreet Bank and expanded its products and services to include business banking and lending. HomeStreet Bank is now in its third generation of family leadership.
