It all starts with
Culture.
For your business to grow, culture is key. And our culture and values aren’t just what we do, they’re who we are. From direct access to company leadership to helping those in need with our Giving Network Foundation, we want to be more than just a company to our employees and our clients.
We believe our highest aim in being a great company is to glorify God.
We believe that families are that they are the backbone of society.
We believe homes are for people, not just profit.
We believe in doing the right things, even when they are hard.
We believe in getting the job done and getting it done on time.
We believe in making the loan process as simple as possible for our clients.
Our people tend to stick around here.
You know a company is doing something right when employees don’t want to leave. In 1998, Buzz Baker and Rex Chamberlain set out to create a network of mortgage professionals driven by values, not just profit. Twenty years later, some of their first hires are still here.
