Partnership with National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals (NAHREP) Aids Lender’s Efforts to Reach and Support Growing Hispanic Demographic

Guild Mortgage (NYSE: GHLD), a growth-oriented mortgage lending company originating and servicing residential loans since 1960, is partnering with the National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals (NAHREP), as it continues to strategically grow and expand its impact on diverse communities across the U.S.

“Guild loan officers work hard to serve diverse clients with an understanding that homeownership is the single largest driver of generational wealth and a major factor contributing to healthy, stable communities,” said Guild Vice President of Marketplace Diversity Strategy, Victoria Garcia DeLuca. “Our partnership with NAHREP is vital to growing our impact in the Hispanic community and by joining the efforts NAHREP is driving, Guild can amplify its work to reach and support Hispanic homebuyers with the information, education and loan programs they need to realize their homeownership dreams.”

NAHREP has a network of more than 40,000 real estate professionals and is The Voice for Hispanic Real Estate® advocating for more Hispanic families to achieve the American Dream of homeownership for generations to come. As part of its commitment as a National NAHREP Partner, Guild Mortgage added to its representation on the NAHREP boards and throughout the organization.

In further support of Guild’s commitment to serving the Hispanic market, NAHREP named nine loan officers from Guild Mortgage to its eighth annual Top 250 Latino Mortgage Originators Report for 2022. Sponsored by Freddie Mac, the report recognizes the top producing Latino mortgage professionals across the United States. This year’s report ranks individual originators based on both number and dollar volume of transactions and represents more than $17.3 billion in combined sales volume in 2021.

Ranked ninth on the list of 250 originators, Jorge Montoya (NMLS ID #276125) was the top Guild Latino loan officer with 514 transactions. He was joined by Xavier Velasco (NMLS ID# 515572), who ranked No. 62 with 247 transactions; Ema Arroyo Uribe (NMLS ID #1076228), who ranked No. 63 with 246 transactions; Melissa Monjaraz (NMLS ID #1014648), who ranked No. 127 with 187 transactions; Sarah Lee (NMLS ID #280947), who ranked No. 153 with 174 transactions; Lily Navarro (NMLS ID#897500), who ranked No. 167 with 165 transactions; Robert Nuñez (NMLS ID #307169 ), who ranked No. 202 with 152 transactions; Diana Legaspi (NMLS ID #1175742), who ranked No. 223 with 145 transactions, and Spencer Valerio (NMLS ID #305514), who ranked No. 236 with 140 transactions. Montoya has now been ranked in the top 10 every year since the report started in 2015.

The Top 250 Latino Mortgage Originators Report was compiled through a self-nomination process reflecting total transactions closed during the 2021 calendar year, then validated by NAHREP through the nominees' respective companies.

The honorees will be recognized at the NAHREP at L’ATTITUDE 2022 event, September 22-25, 2022, in San Diego, where Montoya, Garcia DeLuca, and Guild Executive Vice President of Capital Markets David Battany will also participate as speakers.
