The Start of the Financial Journey
When we first opened our doors as the Point Pleasant Building and Loan Association in 1902, we had one simple goal: to help our neighbors achieve their dream of owning a home. Our commitment to you hasn't changed since then.
Here are some highlights over time:
- Founded to help people own their homes and build families, we've stayed true to who we are while expanding our services and reach.
- In 1996, OceanFirst became the first bank to create a foundation during its mutual-to-stock conversion, marking a milestone in our commitment to the community.
- Our IPO in 1996 set the stage for significant growth, allowing us to gradually extend our services to 40 locations.
- Over the years, we've welcomed new members to the OceanFirst family, like Colonial American Bank, Cape Bank, Ocean City Home Bank, and more.
-We continuously enhance our digital services and solutions while maintaining a personal touch.
