Real Estate Mortgage Network Inc. (REMN) has announced the hiring of two new Georgia state managers to help the company continue its growth throughout the region, Angie Gora and Todd Greak, both veterans of the Georgia mortgage industry, who will report directly to Greg Janicki. Both Gora and Greak will work to grow REMN’s footprint throughout Georgia as the company expands in the southeastern U.S. Gora and Greak are two Georgia natives who bring a wealth of experience to the REMN team.
Janicki, REMN’s southeast regional manager, joined the company in February of this year.
Gora is a 25-year veteran of the mortgage industry, and prior to joining Real Estate Mortgage Network Inc. (REMN), held the role of group vice president at SunTrust Mortgage. She studied business management at Georgia Southern University and the University of Georgia. Gora is an active ambassador for the United Way and volunteer softball coach.
Greak, who has 17 years of experience in the lending industry, also comes to REMN after holding the position of VP at SunTrust Mortgage. When not in the office, he stays very busy volunteering at his local church and assisting in the various sports leagues his four children participate in.
“REMN has had a major presence in the southeast for some time and we continue to see strong interest across Georgia," said Janicki. "Both Angie and Todd have worked at various positions throughout the mortgage industry in this region and share the customer first, quality-centric philosophies that have been a part of REMN’s DNA for more than 20 years. They’re going to be great additions to the team."
As a whole, REMN combines the services of consumer facing retail branches with those of a large-scale wholesale brokerage and online channels. REMN currently has more than 30 retail offices licensed to originate loans across the continental United States, in addition to their online consumer direct division, which is doing business as FinanceMyHome.com.
REMN employs more than 600 people throughout offices in California, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Maryland, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Texas. In 2010, REMN closed nearly $3 billion in home loans, solidifying its position as one of the largest independent non-bank lenders in the U.S. In May of this year, REMN announced the launch of Menlo Park Funding, a new branch opportunity for select independent brokers and bankers. Menlo Park Funding will be the fourth business channel in REMN’s existing wholesale, retail and consumer direct divisions.
