About Us

Our History

Texas Advantage was founded in December 2006 when President/CEO Mike Hoskins and a group of local investors saw the need for a locally owned and independently operated premier community bank to serve the growing Alvin, Pearland and Friendswood markets.

Led by a local board of directors and managed by an experienced executive staff, Texas Advantage is a 5 Star rated bank by BAUERFINANCIAL. We are committed to providing a positive banking experience to our customers and exceeding their expectations. Texas Advantage Community Bank is about the strength of our people.
