IN THE NEWS Recent LoanStar Home Lending Press Clippings

Mortgage News Daily, WASHINGTON, Monday, September 22, 2014 Author: Rob Chrisman Back in April the commentary mentioned explosive growth at LoanStar Home Lending. Where are they now? After launching last November the Portland, Oregon based mortgage bank now has nearly 170 employees from Seattle to Dallas and most points in between. As President & CEO Mike Baldwin explained in a recently produced Mission Statement video, "we're growing, and we are busy!" LoanStar has been busy, with new branches opened in Dallas/Fort Worth, Albuquerque, Phoenix, Clackamas, OR, and Everett, WA since the commentary last reported in April. LoanStar also has a new facility under construction in Vancouver, WA and Orange County, CA slated to open in October. "We continue to attract talent based on our ability to close loans efficiently, a broad offering of correspondent lender relationships, and a top-flight concierge marketing system. Our system is designed to allow originators freedom to originate new loans and relationships and not process loans, conduct damage control, or spend time trying to figure out how to market themselves. That is what the loan officers say they want, and that's what we deliver," says Baldwin. To learn more, visit www.GoLoanStar.com and contact the regional manager closest to you, or contact Kenn Bartley, SVP Business Development.

Heraldnet.com, WASHINGTON, Friday, October 3, 2014, 12:01 a.m.
