Company Performance Metrics
our story In 1997, loan officer John Walsh started a mortgage company. It came as the result of years in the industry; he had the experience, the know-how, and a briefcase full of big ideas – so it was a natural choice to get started. Over the next decade, his company grew from a tiny three-person shop to a national lender. And when the housing
crisis leveled the mortgage industry in 2007, Total Mortgage was one of the few lenders to stay intact. We owe that to a single choice John had made years earlier... Other lenders were making a fortune by putting borrowers in homes they would never be able to pay for, signing off on the very deals that led to the recession. We only offered the loans that we knew our borrowers could afford. No matter how large we grow, we’ll never forget how that decision saved both us and our borrowers. And in our post-recession success, we’ve become the kind of lender that can really do it all. We’re proud to provide homebuyers with the service and integrity of a hometown bank while also offering all the same benefits as the big guys. That’s our mission – to provide local lending expertise at the national level.
