Cliffco Mortgage Bankers has appointed Rohit Suri as Wholesale Sales Director, where he will oversee the company’s wholesale division, Clout WMB, and spearhead its expansion into the third-party origination (TPO) market.
Suri brings more than three decades of mortgage and financial services experience, with a proven record of leading production teams and growing market share across both bank and nonbank platforms. His career includes leadership and origination roles at American Community Bank, Hanover Community Bank, The Federal Savings Bank, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as well as earlier positions at BNY Mortgage Co., Emigrant Mortgage Co., and Republic National Bank. Over the years, Suri has earned a reputation for building high-performing sales organizations and executing strategies that expand wholesale lending channels.
At Clout Wholesale, Suri will lead all production, sales strategy, and client engagement initiatives, with a focus on strengthening relationships with brokers and enhancing the company’s operational infrastructure to support national growth. His appointment marks a key step in Cliffco’s effort to scale its TPO presence and diversify its lending platform.
Ryan Riddle, partner at Cliffco Mortgage Bankers, reposted the news on LinkedIn, adding a “major update” to the company’s offerings. “WE ARE GOING TO BE OFFERING ALL PRODUCTS TO OUR TPO PARTNERS IN THE COMING WEEKS,” he stated, signaling the company’s expansion will allow broker partners to access a full suite of products through Clout WMB.
Cliffco, a New York–based independent mortgage banker founded in 1987, has steadily expanded its retail and wholesale divisions in recent years. With Suri at the helm of Clout WMB, the company expects to position itself to become a competitive force in the national wholesale market.
