Chase has announced that it plans to hire 300 local mortgage officers in the New York Tri-State area in the next six months to help more Chase customers finance home purchases or reduce their monthly payments through refinances. “We want to make sure we have seasoned mortgage professionals to help our customers at 1,000 Chase local bank branches, the largest network in the area,” said Thasunda Duckett, Northeast manager for Chase home lending. “We know home loans are core to our relationship with consumers and especially important as the housing market begins to recover.” New loan officers will serve customers through bank branches in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, bringing Chase’s local home team to about 700.
