The 50 Greatest Names in Mortgage Lending

8 Comments

Read Now
 
TMC President Rich Swerbinsky created a LinkedIn post of his ten favorite industry names in 2017, growing into The 50 Greatest Names in Mortgage Lending as the list took on a new life in the years to follow. The list was formalized, expanded to twenty names, and has continued to grow annually since. Inclusion on the list is considered extremely prestigious. And no, payments and/or gifts will not be accepted in exchange for consideration. 

Check out this year's 50 greatest names in mortgage lending:

The Legends
1. Robert Fightmaster, First State Bank - This is like Cal Ripken’s record, no one is unseating this one.
2. Hakan Wildcat, Sunflower Bank Mortgage - Best part about this name is he’s just some totally average looking middle-aged white dude from Lawrence, KS.
3. Harmony Frimpong, Atlantic Coast Mortgage - I want to skip and frolic while saying this name.
4. Tallman Johnson, The Mortgage Bankers Association - Stands five feet, nine inches tall, which HAS to disappoint his parents.
5. Harry Glanz, Capital Mortgage Funding - Hopefully he states his name after shaking hands in meetings.
6. Shy Tittlebaum, Crescent Mortgage - Crescent Mortgage with FOUR names in the top forty, an interesting recruiting strategy. 
7. Pierce Outlaw, Patriot Home Funding - Good name for a lead character in a crappy romance novel.
8. Chuck Chill, Flagstar Bank - I just wanna have a beer with this guy so I can say I chilled with Chuck Chill.
9. Rusty Wiglesworth, Raymond James - An inordinate number of people on this list are in secondary marketing. Draw your own conclusions.
10. Liberty Tribe, Crescent Mortgage - We won’t make people call her Liberty Guardians.

I am writing to you to ask for your help in finding a reputable attorney specializing in personal injury cases.

I was recently injured in a car accident and will require legal representation.

I have been referred to you by a friend who said you would be able to help me.

I am looking for an attorney who is knowledgeable and experienced in personal injury law, and who will be able to help me get the compensation I deserve.
