Bye Bye Nationstar, Hello Mr. Cooper

Aug 21, 2017

After 23 years in business, Nationstar Mortgage has changed its name to Mr. Cooper.

“Mr. Cooper is more than just a new brand name,” said the company on its Web site. “It represents a better way of doing business. We aim to be the friendliest, most trusted advocate for every customer, whether we’re helping you with a loan, refinancing, or simply servicing your existing loan.”

In case anyone is wondering if the Mr. Cooper name is a tribute to locomotive inventor, the “Welcome to My Nightmare” singer or any other notable with that surname, the Coppell, Texas-based company insisted that the new moniker was meant to reinforce the notion of a service-focused organization working to help its customer base.

“We’re keeping things simple, focusing on solutions and putting customers first,” the company added. “Yes, we’ve made improvements, but we’re not done. We’re on a journey to better, and we won’t stop until we achieve our single-minded goal: To keep the dream of home ownership alive for every customer.”
