A Report by the National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals®

The Top 250 Latino Mortgage Originators Award is an annual report by the National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals® (NAHREP®) that recognizes the leading Latino mortgage originators in the U.S. as ranked by the number of mortgages they closed the previous calendar year. NAHREP is proud to recognize these top performing individuals for their contributions toward the association’s mission of sustainable Hispanic homeownership.
The Top 250 Mortgage Originators Award was conceived in 2014 after the continued success of the Top 250 Latino Agents Award created a demand for recognition of success in other parts of the industry. This year, mortgage originators from across the country earned distinction as a Top 250 Latino Mortgage Originator from among over 800 mortgage originators nominated for the fifth annual award. The group of top producers represents a total of 31,380 closed mortgages and $8.14 billion in mortgage sales. Wells Fargo Home Mortgage topped this year’s report for the fifth consecutive year with the most individuals recognized on the list, followed by New American Funding and DHI Mortgage. The report includes lists recognizing the Top 100 from among the non-depository lenders nominated for the award and the Top 100 by volume. The success of the Top 250 Latino Mortgage Originators is a demonstration of the growing influence Latinos demonstrate in the industry both as a profession as well as in the volume of home buyers driving the housing economy.
Felicidades to the Top 250 and their continued success! Join the conversation on social media and recognize their achievements as well as their Top 250 Latino Agent counterparts. Share comments
using #Top250 on social media.
The listing of the Top 250 Latino Mortgage Originators in America is compiled through a self-nomination process reflective of transactions closed during the 2018 calendar year. Once received, NAHREP reviews the nomination for accuracy and when necessary seeks validation of data submitted from the respective candidate’s company. This list represents both individual and team transactions. To be eligible, nominees are required to submit their number of closed mortgages to be ranked against other nominees. Nominations may be disqualified or modified where third party validation is not available or consistent. In instances where there is a tie based on number of mortgages closed, higher rank is given to originators with greater
sales volume. Ethnic background is confirmed through self-attestation.

to their new homes but most importantly she
enjoys educating them on the process and
the opportunities available to them. Being
a second-generation immigrant, Maria
witnessed her mother struggle with language
barriers that impeded her from reaching
opportunities and resources available. For
that reason, she proudly serves families that
face the same challenges while instilling in
them the importance of homeownership and
wealth building.
