Annual loan production rose by 43% in terms of units as well as volume as compared to the level of mortgage lending activity achieved during the 2011 calendar year.

This record setting accomplishment caps off a year in which Cornerstone Mortgage, Inc. has received Ginnie Mae Issuer/Servicer approval in addition to being named the 2nd largest, privately held mortgage banking operation in the St. Louis region.

In many cases such rapid growth can come at the expense of customer service or employee satisfaction.

When asked about the secret to such explosive growth while maintaining consistently superior levels of customer satisfaction it had previously been stated by Jim Dean, “the high levels of integrity and professionalism from the staff and Loan Officers continues to play a major role in the substantial achievements of our company.” Angi Stevenson went on to recognize the hard work and dedication of the entire staff, especially during periods of record loan production.
