Rob Speight to Lead Inlanta Mortgage's New Chicago Area Location

Inlanta Mortgage

Inlanta Mortgage Inc. has expanded into the greater Chicago area with a new branch office in the town of Carpentersville, Ill. Veteran mortgage manager Rob Speight will manage the office’s team of loan officers.

Speight, with 21-plus years of industry experience, and his team left Stearns Lending to join Inlanta Mortgage. Speight has served in a number of management roles, with companies such as Wintrust Mortgage, Bank of America and Countrywide. 

“Inlanta Mortgage is one of the best kept secrets in the Chicago area," Speight said. "For mortgage banking in 2015, bigger is definitely not better. Inlanta has an array of loan programs that you don’t see in larger mortgage banks and yet is nimble addressing the ever changing mortgage environment. In addition to all conventional loan programs, the Carpentersville loan originators are FHA experts and focused on emerging markets and first-time homebuyers.”

In addition to Speight, the new Carpentersville team will include Senior Loan Officer Javier Mendoza, Senior Loan Officer Dharmesh Jadav and Loan Officer Assistant Elizabeth Serediuk.  

“Inlanta continues to align itself with true mortgage professionals," said Inlanta's Vice President of Business Development Joe Ramis. "Speight and his team are an ideal match for our team and we look forward to providing them with the support they need to grow their business.”
