Supreme Lending Expands in Northeast With New Lehigh Valley Branch

Jan 31, 2017

Lehigh, Penn.-area residents Patrick Rooney and Brian Fiore have opened a new branch location for Supreme Lending, which will be licensed in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, will serve the Lehigh Valley and Poconos areas. Rooney and Fiore will serve as co-branch managers for the location. Together, the Lehigh Valley natives bring more than 30 years of experience in all types of government and agency financing, including Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, FHA, VA, non-conforming and jumbo products. Their expertise with purchase transactions and first-time homebuyers is the foundation of their referral-based business.
 
“Our job is helping borrowers navigate to a successful close,” said Rooney. “We evaluate the facts, present options, explain how things work, and allow our clients to decide what is best for them. The difference between us and your average loan officer is that we know mortgage guidelines like we know our own siblings. We know what’s worked in the past and what hasn’t.”
 
Fiore added, “Qualifying for a mortgage can be stressful for first time homebuyers. They’ve never been through the process so they need a different type of communication. You have to really enjoy working with these folks, like Patrick and I do, to deliver service that makes everyone happy not just when the deal closes, but throughout the whole process. That’s what we strive for, and that’s what we deliver.”
