Option One Teams Up With Prado Mortgage

Option One Mortgage Corp., Irvine, Calif., has announced the formation of a partnership with San Diego-based Prado Mortgage to help expand Option One's services to the Hispanic community and help Prado better serve its customers.Option One said the partnership was developed through its working relationship with Prado chief executive officer Gary Acosta and its involvement with the San Diego-based National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals.
