The new hire will handle the firm's recruitment efforts from his Richmond base
Homebridge Financial Services has hired mortgage veteran Kevin Kelly to oversee the company' growth in Southern Virginia.
The mortgage lender tasked Kelly with the role of area manager. In this role, he will focus on increasing Homebridge's presence in and around the greater Richmond area through recruitment efforts and branch expansions.
Kelly joined Homebridge with almost three decades of experience in the mortgage industry. He spent most of his career as a consultant, mortgage loan originator, broker, and branch manager at various mortgage firms – including Guaranteed Rate, DHI Mortgage, Residential Finance Corporation, HSBC, and Kelly Mortgage.
“Homebridge holds a very unique place in the mortgage industry," Kelly said. "It has the funding and infrastructure in place to provide mortgage loan originators with the critical resources for success that are expected from a national mortgage lender, along with a dedicated focus on the success of its employees. Too often, we forget that it’s people that drive the mortgage industry. From providing its associates with class-leading marketing initiatives to mentorship opportunities and one of the most diverse product lines in the industry, Homebridge offers a refreshing opportunity for mortgage professionals at every level.”
