We decided to create Redfin Mortgage to loan money to Redfin customers buying homes.<\/p>\n<p>By integrating a lending operation with Redfin\u2019s existing brokerage and title businesses, the company\u2019s ultimate goal is an entirely digital process, with better service, a faster closing and lower fees. Redfin Mortgage plans to begin issuing loans in the first half of 2017, initially serving customers in Austin, Dallas, Houston and San Antonio markets.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 203px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/jason-bateman-Redfin.jpg\" alt=\"jason-bateman-Redfin\" width=\"203\" height=\"202\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jason Bateman will lead Redfin Mortgage<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cRedfin Mortgage will put the customer first through a combination of technology and personal service,\u201d said Redfin CEO Glenn Kelman. \u201cThis approach to mortgage is the same that has made us successful serving more than 75,000 customers buying and selling homes. We\u2019ll meet customers through digital channels to lower customer acquisition costs.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll hire our own mortgage advisers with incentives that reward service, not just sales, so customers get advice they can trust. We\u2019ll track every aspect of the closing in a single system used by mortgage advisers, real estate agents, title experts and the customer so everyone works together on an on-time closing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve hired Jason Bateman, formerly executive vice president of mortgage operations at BBVA Compass, to lead the effort. Jason has more than 15 years of experience in the mortgage industry. He will run Redfin\u2019s mortgage operation out of a new Dallas-based office. The software engineers supporting the mortgage business are based in Seattle.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"media-56464\" class=\"align-right\"><\/figure>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Redfin_Mortgage.jpg\" alt=\"Redfin_Mortgage\" width=\"304\" height=\"529\" \/>\u201cWhen your real estate agent, title professional and lender work together, you win,\u201d said Bateman. \u201cLenders should spend their time determining which loan is right for a customer, not looking for new customers. If an appraisal comes in low or an inspection turns up a problem, everyone should learn about it at the same time, without relying on telephone calls and email messages hours after the fact. Automating tasks that were once performed manually should not only lower costs, but reduce the possibility of errors that create lending risk. Our vision is the way I\u2019d always imagined home lending should be.\u201d<br \/>\n<br \/>\nRedfin\u2019s real estate agents will continue our partnerships with lenders of all stripes, encouraging customers to work with the lender that offers the best combination of service and rates. There will be no incentives for Redfin real estate agents to recommend a Redfin loan. Because Redfin\u2019s mortgage service depends on integration with its brokerage operation, the company does not initially plan to support refinancings or loans to consumers who buy a home without using a Redfin agent.<\/p>\n<p>Please stay tuned to the Redfin blog for updates on Redfin Mortgage!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Redfin Mortgage is the next-generation mortgage lender where the real estate agent, lender and title company are linked on the same system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13059,"featured_media":56480,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[57],"tags":[41],"dashboard":[],"coauthors":[],"class_list":["post-56462","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-company-news","tag-redfin-mortgage"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.7 (Yoast SEO v27.6) -
