Gateway Named to Top 50 Mortgage Companies in America 2022 by Mortgage Executive Magazine

TULSA, Okla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Gateway Mortgage, a division of Gateway First Bank, is proud to announce that it has been named to the Top 50 Mortgage Companies in America 2022 as published by Mortgage Executive Magazine. Gateway is ranked 27th based on total yearly mortgage volume.

Mortgage Executive Magazine compiled the most comprehensive list of the nation’s top 100 closely held mortgage companies and publicly traded banks as ranked by their total yearly mortgage volume. Mortgage Executive Magazine seeks to recognize and celebrate the service, dedication, and hard work that mortgage originators, managers, and executives put into building their companies and serving their clients.

According to the magazine, “For every mortgage executive, the current economic turmoil offers plenty of cause use for insomnia. Uncertainties abound. High performers turn periods of uncertainty to their advantage.” This list recognizes those companies that persevered in times of uncertainty.

“The housing industry went from its highest volume ever in 2020 to a significant plunge back to 2016 volumes almost overnight,” said Scott Gesell, CEO of Gateway First Bank. “Gateway has weathered this event due to its strong foundation and prudent business approach, which allows us to continue to be one of the nation’s leaders in the mortgage industry.”

“Our efforts to find the right solution to help each customer realize their homeownership dream is what sets us apart,” explained Steven Plaisance, President of Mortgage Banking for Gateway. “It’s exciting to see our team’s expertise and caring service recognized again and again.”
