Senior Partner Garth Graham provides strategy advise for some of the largest Independent and Bank-owned mortgage lenders. Graham has more than 30 years of experience in mortgage banking, ranging from Fortune 500 companies to successful startups, including management of two of the most successful e-commerce platforms. Graham has advised more than 200 mortgage companies, including many of the top lenders in the country, on acquisition strategies, and strategic investments that streamline operations, improve profitability, and accelerate growth.
Graham was one of the founders of mortgage.com, where the idea of a digital mortgage experience that would make the mortgage process faster and better for the customer was born. Mortgage.com originated the first mortgage through the Internet and was the original platform for the Quicken and Microsoft mortgage initiatives. In 2019, Graham was recognized on HousingWire’s inaugural “Tech Trendsetters” list for his efforts to further “digital mortgage” as the accepted industry norm.
A sought-after speaker, Graham entertains his audiences with a mix of data, insight, real-life experiences and humor. An avid Michigan fan, he fosters rescue dogs who may not appreciate his mortgage insights or laugh at his jokes but do appreciate the long walks on the beach near his home in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
