Non-QM and non-agency mortgage lender Arc Home announced two new hires today, boosting its executive suite with a pair of TPO veterans. John Gibson joins Arc as chief production officer, while Eamon Cantwell joins as chief operations officer. 

Arc Home CEO, Brian Devlin, commented in a release that Gibson and Cantwell "bring unparalleled expertise and leadership to Arc Home during a transformative time for the industry." Devlin expects their contributions to "strengthen our operations, deepen our partnerships, and position Arc Home as a trusted leader in non-QM and non-agency lending."

The press release also noted Gibson’s and Cantwell’s “decades of leadership experience at some of the nation's top TPO lenders." They will help drive growth and enhance the company’s offerings such as HomeEQ, Arc Home's fully digitized home equity line of credit (HELOC) solution.

Gibson, the former senior vice president of TPO lending at Flagstar Bank, will focus on enhancing Arc Home's production capabilities, strengthening broker and correspondent relationships, and advancing the growth of its non-QM, non-agency, and HomeEQ products, according to Arc Home's release.

For his part, Gibson said his focus “is on equipping our partners with the tools and resources they need to thrive, backed by a sales team that prioritizes advocacy and excellence."

Cantwell, meanwhile, will lead efforts to streamline processes, optimize operations, and deliver exceptional service across all channels. Cantwell, who was formerly founder and CEO of R5 Home Loans LLC, noted that, having recently worked as a broker originating non-QM loans, “I've experienced firsthand the challenges clients face and where processes can become inefficient.”

Cantwell added that he’ll work with the Arc Home team “to remove bottlenecks and create seamless, scalable processes that drive growth for our broker, delegated and non-delegated partners while delivering exceptional service."

Last year, Arc Home announced a corporate rebranding and a new tagline: “Non-QM Made Simple.”
