Prominent mortgage executive praises homeownership solution for having "unique" possibilities
Homeownership solution provider Milestones has appointed Tony Meola (pictured) on its board of directors.
Meola has served on a number of industry advisory boards over the three decades he has been in the mortgage sector. These include Black Knight Financial Services, Five Star Institute, Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae, and the Mortgage Bankers Board of Governors.
In a news release, Milestones said the addition of Meola would enhance the company’s competitive edge within the mortgage industry.
“Real estate, mortgage, and title are the three pillars of any real estate transaction,” said Dustin Gray, CEO of Milestones. “Our objective has always been to unify the experience – for consumers and professionals alike. Tony brings a unique perspective having already executed this vision at scale during his tenure at major financial institutions. We are grateful not only for his big picture thinking, but also his entrepreneurial mindset and experience scaling that will help take Milestones to the next level.”
Creating value for customers
Meola described Milestones as having a “unique opportunity” to help the industry lift brand loyalty and create “real value” for consumers while increasing the margins of providers.
“Homeownership is typically a decade-long journey that naturally intersects the real estate and mortgage markets,” explained Meola. “It is crucial that real estate professionals provide their clients a lifetime value proposition and become more relational through every stage of homeownership. Milestones provides that opportunity by creating home management solutions that engage consumers and deliver valuable resources throughout the entire life cycle of obtaining and owning a home.”
Milestones aims to empower consumers to manage their property assets with the utilization of online homeowner portals. Clients are supported by real estate professionals who help them during the acquisition of their assets.
