New American Funding Expands in Central Texas, Adds Leaman Team

Jan 16, 2018

When it comes to living in state capitals, Texas residents in Austin enjoy the highest quality of life, while residents in Trenton, N.J., and Hartford, Conn., face significantly lower quality of life

New American Funding has expanded its Central Texas territory with the award-winning Leaman Team. Ranked by the Austin Business Journal as the Number One Lender in Austin for six consecutive years, Max Leaman will spearhead the market expansion as Branch Manager and Senior Loan Officer.

"The home loan industry is changing rapidly; customers and Real Estate Agents want fast closings, low rates and state-of-the-art technology to save time and simplify the loan process," said Leaman. "Powered by New American Funding, we deliver what the market wants from application to closing."

In 2017, Leaman closed more than 1,000 home loans and will be joined by his production team of Jori Stern, Amanda Stewart, Adam Biehler and Tiffany Wilbrett Garcia, as well as his talented operations, processing and closing teams.

“We’re thrilled to have Max Leaman and his team on board with New American Funding,” said New American Co-Founder and President Patty Arvielo. “Not only do they bring a wealth of industry insight but they embody the future of mortgage banking. They’re young, innovative and ahead of the curve, which merges well with our fast-moving automated platform.”
