Gateway Mortgage Group, a division of Gateway First Bank, has opened a mortgage center in Moorestown, N.J., to meet demand from local communities for home financing, the company said. 

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.

“Gateway continues to grow and expand its footprint to meet the increasing demand from local communities for home financing,” said Scott Gesell, Gateway CEO. “We are committed to the families and communities we serve. Our momentum is a testament to our team members’ persistent focus on connecting with people to positively impact their lives.”

The company funded more than $10 billion in mortgage loans in 2021, assisting nearly 45,000 customers with their home financing needs.

“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.”

Headquartered in Jenks, Okla., Gateway First Bank is a $1.9 billion asset sized bank with a significant mortgage operation that provides banking and mortgage services for consumers and commercial customers. It has over 170 mortgage centers in 43 states, and over 1,600 employees.
