Homebridge Financial Services Inc. has added Matt LaPorta in the roles of branch manager and mortgage loan originator in the company’s Central Tampa branch. LaPorta, a Florida native and a part of the bronze medal-winning 2008 U.S. Olympic Baseball Team, is highly respected by both members of the greater Tampa builder community, as well as his homebuying customers, for his ability to secure the right mortgage options for a broad range of customers in Tampa’s diverse housing landscape.

“Homebridge is dedicated to helping its customers secure the right mortgage by offering an almost unmatched assortment of residential loans that can be tailored to each customer’s individual situation,” said LaPorta. “As a company, Homebridge’s commitment to resolving the affordability issues in Tampa matches my own. With Homebridge I’m able to provide the personal touch and care I’m known for in the community, supported by a level of resources you’d be hard-pressed to find elsewhere.”
