Aug 23, 2021

Ranks 117th Overall On Annual Inc. 5000 List

Nationwide Mortgage Bankers (NMB) is ranked No. 117 on Inc. magazine’s annual list of the 5,000 fastest-growing privately held companies in the U.S., the highest ranking of any mortgage lender in the nation. It is the third consecutive year that NMB has been ranked as the fastest-growing mortgage company.

"Ranking as the 117th fastest-growing company and the No. 1 fastest-growing mortgage company three years (in a row) is not possible without every person in the organization collaborating and supporting each other," said NMB President Jodi Hall. "We continue to build an organization based on our core values. Our ability to focus and live those values every day leads to this type of growth year-over-year."

Hall said the Inc. ranking “is proof that we continue to have the most passionate, driven, dedicated, and innovative employees — not only in the mortgage industry, but in the country and across all sectors.”

Not only have the companies on the 2021 Inc. 5000 been very competitive within their markets, but this year's list also proved especially resilient and flexible given 2020's unprecedented challenges. Among the 5,000, the average median three-year growth rate soared to 543 percent, and median revenue reached $11.1 million. Together, those companies added more than 610,000 jobs over the past three years.

"The 2021 Inc. 5000 list feels like one of the most important rosters of companies ever compiled," says Scott Omelianuk, Inc. editor-in-chief. "Building one of the fastest-growing companies in America in any year is a remarkable achievement. Building one in the crisis we've lived through is just plain amazing. This kind of accomplishment comes with hard work, smart pivots, great leadership, and the help of a whole lot of people."

Based in Mellville, N.Y., Nationwide Mortgage Bankers provide agency and non-agency products to loan officers within the mortgage industry. To learn more, click here.
