Shore Plans to Expand Origination Staff

Federal Housing Administration lender Shore Mortgage, Birmingham, Mich., which is licensed in 25 states, said it is planning to significantly grow its origination staff due to rate-driven increases in its business and its reputation for swift mortgage closings.

He said positions the company is seeking to fill include loan officers (10-20 people per month for the next three months), underwriters, processors, closers, post-closing specialists and account executives. The company is licensed to do business in Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Maine, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, Washington and Wisconsin.
