New American Funding Expands NorCal Footprint With New Sonoma County Branch

Oct 04, 2017

New American Funding, a leader in the mortgage industry, has expanded its Northern California territory to include a brand new location in the Sonoma County market in the town of Santa Rosa, Calif.

“We do everything in-house and we deliver a clearly defined experience that takes the guesswork out of the loan process and provides our borrowers and Real Estate Agents with great clarity,” said Santa Rosa Branch Manager Scott Sheldon. “We make it all about the customer. As a result, people want to work with us because they know us and trust us.”

Sheldon will oversee the new branch while working one-on-one originating loans for clients and helping them make smart, prudent decisions. He’s a native of Santa Rosa and brings to the position more than 10 years of industry experience working in the local market. He’s also a highly sought-out mortgage expert and avid blogger, with weekly consumer articles featured in online publications including Yahoo!, AOL Real Estate, and Fox Business.

Just last month, New American Funding announced the opening of a retail branch in Silicon Valley, a 4,000-square foot office space in downtown San Jose on the top floor of a 16-story high-rise.
