Open Mortgage Celebrates 10 Years With Special Programs for First-Time Homebuyers

Jan 04, 2013

Open Mortgage LLC will be celebrating its 10-year anniversary this January by offering a First-Time Homebuyers Nationwide Special. All first-time homebuyers that submit their mortgage application with Open between Jan. 2, 2013-March 31, 2013 will receive a free appraisal. In addition to the First-Time Homebuyer's Special, Open Mortgage is offering a First-Time Homebuyer's Video Contest. First-time homebuyers who obtained their loan with Open Mortgage can submit a video tape of their experience obtaining their loan as well as presenting the keys to their new home. These videos from across the country will be submitted to the Open Mortgage Corporate Contest Panel who will choose the winning video. The winner of the contest will receive $1,000 for new home furnishings. Winners are to be announced on April 30, 2012. During 2012, the company added 44 new branches throughout the country and increased its corporate staff by 15 percent, while establishing successful partnerships with industry leaders that further benefit our customers. "Ten years in operation during the most difficult time in the mortgage and housing industry is an incredible achievement of which we are proud," said Scott Gordon, CEO of Open Mortgage LLC, adding “As we celebrate and move our business forward, we are excited about what is to come over the next 10 years.”
