Primary Residential Mortgage Inc. (PRMI) has expanded its eClose services offerings to 49 states and the District of Columbia

The Mid-Atlantic Division of Primary Residential Mortgage Inc. (PRMI) is celebrating its 15th year in business. In March of 2003, Division President Dean Johnson opened the first Maryland branch in his basement in Towson, Md. PRMI’s Mid-Atlantic Division has become a multibillion-dollar operation with nearly 120 employees and 15 branches throughout Maryland and Delaware.
 
“Dean Johnson and his team have been an incredibly integral part of PRMI’s performance over the last 15 years, and we are proud of their division’s milestones,” said Dave Zitting, President and Chief Executive Officer of PRMI. “The team’s in-depth mortgage knowledge, experience, and outstanding customer service is what really sets them apart from their local competition.”
 
Shortly before the division’s 15th anniversary, it surpassed $5 billion in total closings. The Division has helped more than 20,000 Americans achieve their dreams of homeownership.
 
“We’ve had a tremendous partnership with PRMI over the last 15 years because our local growth has mirrored the company’s national growth,” Johnson said. “We’ve worked hard to leverage PRMI’s national industry leadership to help families throughout Maryland and the region. We have made it our mission to stay extremely active in our local communities. As we like to say, ‘We live here. We lend here.’ We look forward to our continued partnership with PRMI to live and lend here for 15 more years.”
