The location is the 14th Gateway mortgage center in New Jersey and brings the company’s footprint to over 170 mortgage centers across the United States.

“I am looking forward to helping families realize their dreams of home ownership,” said Brieanne Pearson, loan originator in the new location. “Gateway’s dedication to strengthening families and communities, aligns with my values and passion.”
