LenderClose has announced the addition of Relationship Manager Jesse Scott and Sales Representative Connor Sorge to its team in Des Moines, Iowa.
Scott (pictured right) most recently served as a senior relationship banker for Bank of the West in West Des Moines where he consistently exceeded deposit, lending and referral goals.

Scott also has worked as a property manager, giving him a valuable perspective on the real estate industry–insight that will add to LenderClose’s collective understanding of the market.
Joining LenderClose from Northwestern Mutual where he served as financial representative, Sorge (pictured left) has an excellent track record in financial services sales and client service. A young professional actively involved in Des Moines-area coaching, fitness and entrepreneurship communities, Sorge’s athletic and academic accomplishments are many.
