Embrace Home Loans expands further with opening of Maryland branch

Apr 09, 2010

Embrace Home Loans, a direct lender for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, approved by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), and an issuer for Ginnie Mae, has officially opened a new branch in Annapolis, Md. The branch is located at 888 Bestgate Road and is managed by vice president, Jane Williams. The branch's team boasts 150 years of combined experience, and many of the team members have worked together for more than 10 years. "We're very excited to join Embrace Home Loans," said Williams. "We've worked for large national companies as well as the small local bank and know how to handle every type of purchase and refinance transaction. From the first time homebuyer using local down payment assistance programs to the seasoned buyer purchasing their waterfront dream home, we know what we're doing. Further, Embrace Home Loans' technology is superior to any other, and by combining our experience with their technological expertise, we look forward to providing excellent service to Annapolis and the surrounding communities." Embrace Home Loans is a profitable, privately owned company and is rapidly expanding its operations in the consolidated market. The Annapolis branch provides the entire loan process from application to closing, and because it is not a broker, the process is much more efficient. The branch offers conventional, FHA and VA loan products as well as CDA and USDA programs. Embrace was recognized as one of the "Best Medium Companies to Work for in America," as well as one of the "INC. 5,000 Fastest Growing Private Companies in America." "The team at our Annapolis branch has incredible collective experience in mortgage lending," said Dennis Hardiman, chief executive officer and founder of Embrace Home Loans. "Jane and the rest of the team have worked together for years and have a proven track record of success and service through their tightly-knit, well-run organization. We're very eager to work with this team and look forward to serving the Annapolis area, as well as all of Anne Arundel County, Prince George's County, Charles County and Washington, D.C."
