Amerifirst Home Mortgage, a division of Amerifirst Financial Corporation, has expanded its footprint in the Southeastern United States with the opening of a new branch in the Central Florida region of Lakeland, the ninth retail site for Amerifirst in the state of Florida.

It will operate as a full-service home loan center staffed by a total of 10 team members who will provide a full range of purchase and refinance loan options. Heading up the branch as Co-Area Managers/Loan Originators are Lakeland natives Ryan Larson and Justin Pry, who bring a combined 40-plus years of combined experience in the mortgage industry to Amerifirst.

“We’re excited to expand homeownership opportunities in the beautiful community of Lakeland with Ryan and Justin at the helm,” said Jamie Brown, Amerifirst Home Mortgage’s Southeast Regional Manager. “We’ve recruited an incredibly talented team here in Central Florida, each of whom shares our values and our mission to make a significant difference in the lives of others. We can’t wait to get started.”
