Nations Lending Expands Arizona Presence With New Scottsdale Branch

Nations Lending, a full-service national mortgage lender, has announced its newest Arizona branch in Scottsdale.

The company has hired Stacey Gross, a 13-year lending industry veteran, as branch manager. Gross, who will report to Regional Manager Mike Towery, will oversee the branch’s growth in loan volume production and team members, the company said. 

Gross comes to Nations after serving more than seven years as branch manager at Caliber Home Loans. In addition to her 13 years of lending experience, she possesses three decades of real estate experience. In 2021, she landed in the top 10% of loan volume production in Scotsman Guide and Mortgage Executive. 

"I joined Nations for its value of the three P’s: product, programs, and people,” Gross said. “These are the keys to success for anyone who wants to be successful in the lending industry. I’m excited to grow our Arizona presence even further.” 

“Stacey is a valuable asset and addition to Nations Lending,” Towery said. “Her experience working as an agent and a lender provides great insight to both sides of the market. She will lead our new branch to incredible heights.” 

Headquartered in the Cleveland area, Nations Lending is licensed to lend in all 50 states and employs more than 1,200 people at its corporate headquarters and throughout 138 branches across the U.S.
