Credit Union Real Estate Network (CUREN)

CUREN stands for Credit Union Real Estate Network. CURENs are located though out the US and consist of local credit unions that want to increase the focus of residential real estate lending and finance in their credit unions. Credit Union participants range in asset size from $50 million to over $1 billion. Typically, CURENs meets monthly to discuss real estate lending and finance topics. Locate a CUREN near you.

What are the benefits of CUREN?

Who can participate in CURENs?
