bemortgage Launches Out of Windy City

Nov 20, 2017

bemortgage has announced its launch, headquartered out of Chicago. The company is a division of Bridgeview Bank Group, founded by industry veterans with more than 100 years of combined mortgage experience. bemortgage was the inspiration of top industry leaders who collaborated to develop an innovative and strategic company in an evolving industry.

“Most mortgage companies are slow to change and have outdated restrictions with an archaic process” said Rob Sampson, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of bemortgage. “At bemortgage, we have removed the pain points and created a solution that provides a better experience for our customers first and foremost and an environment where our loan officers can truly thrive.”

To aid in their growth, the company will launch a New Truth in Lending, a campaign intended to speak candidly about the mortgage process from each loan officer’s point of view.

“Other mortgage companies focus on their brand first and loan officers second,” said Sampson. “We hope to flip this paradigm by creating a platform for the most respected members of the mortgage community. We are also fortunate to be partnering with Bridgeview Bank. Bridgeview Bank has over $1 billion in assets under management and a customer service level that is second to none. This partnership will benefit our customers because it gives us greater flexibility to provide financing for consumers when less traditional loans are necessary.”
