This week Redfin Mortgage opened a new office in Tempe to support the rapid growth and geographic expansion of its lending business. Redfin’s Tempe office will have mortgage advisors, processors, underwriters and closing specialists working alongside its local agents. The connectivity between agents and operations has always been a special part of Redfin’s culture and a competitive advantage as the company brings together technology and service to make the entire home-buying and selling journey fast, easy and intuitive.
While Redfin Mortgage employs local mortgage advisors to serve customers in markets around the country, the Tempe office is the first satellite office for Redfin Mortgage, which is headquartered in Frisco, Texas. Redfin Mortgage is actively hiring in both its Frisco and Tempe offices.
“Given our strong brokerage presence in Arizona and a deep pool of talent in the mortgage and banking space, Tempe is a natural place for us to grow,” said Jason Bateman, head of Redfin Mortgage. “Having a location that can serve the Pacific time zone will be valuable as we expand our mortgage offerings to the West Coast in the coming years.”
In the three years since launching, the Redfin Mortgage team has doubled every year and now serves 15 states and the District of Columbia: Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and Wisconsin. Redfin expects that growth to continue as Redfin Mortgage expands to new markets, serves more customers and introduces new technology to streamline the process of getting a home loan and closing on a home purchase.
Sean Malone, who oversees the mortgage processing department, relocated from Frisco to start the new office. “It’s a privilege to introduce Redfin Mortgage to a new city and help grow our team here in Tempe. Joining Redfin Mortgage is like strapping yourself to a rocket ship. Expect a fun ride and fast growth. We’re looking for people who dream of reimagining the way mortgage lending is done and reinventing real estate in the customer’s favor.”
Redfin offers competitive compensation and generous benefits, including three weeks of paid vacation, excellent health insurance and fully paid family leave. Check out Redfin’s Tempe job opportunities to apply today.
