DENVER, Feb. 21, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Motto Franchising, LLC announced today that the Motto Mortgage network of offices closed more than $1.1 billion in loan volume and helped more than 5,000 families realize their dreams of homeownership in 2019.

"Closing more than $1 billion in loan volume is a major milestone for any mortgage company. The fact that the Motto Mortgage network of offices were able to accomplish this in only three years showcases the momentous success of the Motto Mortgage brand. More importantly, the closed loan volume represents the families across the nation that loan originators in the Motto Mortgage network served in 2019. I am proud of our franchisees and look forward to continued momentum in the years ahead," said Ward Morrison, president, Motto Franchising, LLC.
