Lending Industry Secrets


Listen Later

In this episode, I am speaking with one of our own.  Chris Brown is Sr. VP and NC/SC Regional Manager for Atlantic Bay Mortgage and has been in the business for 20+ years.  We’ll hear how Chris’ career in the mortgage lending industry began (when his mom suggested he get a job with a temp agency) and how he has achieved success by following some common sense mottos on how to treat others, functioning as an egalitarian team member, putting customers first, and even some advice for newcomers to the industry and for those seasoned professionals that may be considering a change.

Lending Forward is a weekly podcast hosted by Taylor Ellard and powered by Atlantic Bay Mortgage Group.  We bring you raw stories from real people in the mortgage industry. We're covering what's next in lending, forward-thinking, and reflecting on lessons learned from Mortgage Bankers, Realtors, Financial Advisors, Coaches, and more! How are you lending it forward?
