Plaza Home Mortgage is positioning its wholesale business for further growth with a new leadership structure.
Jeff Leinan, former executive vice president of national wholesale production, will take on the newly created role of president of wholesale production. The company also appointed Allyson Foley as executive vice president of wholesale operations.
Leinan joined Plaza in 2008 as a divisional executive and was elevated to executive vice president in 2018. In his new role, Leinan will oversee the origination, underwriting and production for Plaza’s wholesale lending division.
Meanwhile, Foley will lead the company’s regional wholesale operations, according to a release. Foley jumped to Plaza from Stearns Lending, where she served as executive vice president of operations and was responsible for the firm’s wholesale platform.
