Carrington Mortgage Services Hires Steven Winokur
Winokur will serve as the vice president of marketing for the company's TPO channel.
Carrington Mortgage Services (CMS) has hired Steven Winokur to serve as VP of Marketing, Third-Party Origination.
“Non-QM is an important part of Carrington’s commitment to potential homeowners with non-traditional kinds of income,” said Greg Austin, EVP, Lending for CMS. “During his career, Steven Winokur has demonstrated a unique understanding of Non-QM, and we are proud to add his expertise to CMS, allowing us to better serve American homeowners.”
While serving as Chief Marketing Officer for Angel Oak Lending, Winokur established a reputation as a Non-QM virtuoso; and now he is putting that extensive knowledge of all things Non-QM to work for CMS. Winokur’s significant expertise in marketing strategy, brand development, marketing communications and digital marketing is expected to quickly build on existing marketplace momentum for Carrington’s diverse non-QM offerings.
“Non-QM loans are a vital part of the loan mix for Carrington’s customers,” said Winokur. “We have a responsibility to make loans that are based on bank statements, and other non-W-2-related financial documents, available to ensure all Americans have an equal opportunity to achieve their dream of homeownership, or purchase investment properties to secure their financial future.”
Winokur is expected to concentrate in part on increasing the company’s emphasis on diverse forms of Non-QM education resources, to make sure brokers and sellers – some of whom may be more familiar with FHA, VA and Conventional loan products – have all the knowledge they need to effectively utilize Non-QM for their customers.
“Steven Winokur has a reputation for driving revenue and market share growth with a unique combination of aligning brand development, strategic communications and tactical execution,” said Samuel Bjelac, who recently rejoined CMS as SVP, National Sales, Third-Party Origination. “The addition of his expertise to our combination of loan programs, leading-edge technology and imminently capable operations teams demonstrate that CMS is more committed than ever to providing steadfast Non-QM support to our mortgage industry partners.”
