Expanded offering bolsters the mortgage lender's already robust retail and commercial product options.
CHANDLER, Ariz., June 27, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Geneva Financial (Geneva), a direct mortgage lender operating in 47 states, has announced the rollout of an in-house Portfolio Lending Division led by industry veteran Morgan Smith. The new division will focus on making sensible private money loans utilizing the company's own capital to be held in portfolio in order to promote a wider array of options for Geneva borrowers.
"This new division is an exciting addition to our already robust offering," Geneva Financial CEO, Aaron VanTrojen stated about the announcement; "more than that, we are delighted to have Morgan Smith and his incredible expertise join the company."
With a starting $55 million in managed funds and strategy to grow, the Portfolio Lending Division provides a financing partner for Geneva Financial loan officers to assist investors, builders and clients of their real estate agents. Products will include construction loans for ground-up or renovation (Fix and Flip) as well as bridge loans for investors (6 months to 3 years) and a signature bridge loan called the 'Transition' that enables borrowers to purchase a new home before their existing one is sold. Portfolio Lending can also provide longer term financing to certain qualified owner-occupied borrowers who don't fit into existing guidelines.
Head of Portfolio Lending Morgan Smith and Geneva Financial CEO Aaron VanTrojen are longtime colleagues, friends and past business partners passionate about humanizing the mortgage loan process. This partnership signals a new wave of diverse mortgage products available to better serve Geneva Financial's markets across the United States.
"I could not be more pleased than to come home to Geneva Financial and partner with my closest friends and the other good humans that make this company so special," Smith shared about the launch.
