Cornerstone Home Lending completes strategic initiative that allows sales teams to serve families across the country

CHL Loan Officers may now lend in multiple states without individual state licenses

HOUSTON, January 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/— Cornerstone Home Lending (CHL) has positioned all CHL Loan Officers to originate residential mortgage purchase and refinance loans across CHL’s current footprint in 37 states and the District of Columbia, without the need for individual state licenses. Additionally, CHL has residential mortgage lending operations in the state of Maryland.

This unique advantage for CHL Loan Officers, together with CHL’s fully in-house mortgage loan servicing operations and new banking products and services through Cornerstone Capital Bank, positions the company as a continued innovator and leader in the mortgage industry. “After we acquired The Roscoe State Bank and formed Cornerstone Capital Bank, SSB in October 2022, our skilled teams swiftly enhanced internal technology to promote production growth across the country for our Loan Officers through expanded lending areas, specialty portfolio loan products, training, and other services,” said Adam Laird, CHL’s Chief Executive Officer.

“We constantly focus on investing in new, innovative ways to support the growth of our Loan Officers and the success of our business partners,” said Laird. “With an industry-leading culture as our foundation and our Mission, Vision, and Convictions as our guide, we’re excited about the future as we leverage the combination of three business pillars – residential mortgage lending, new in-house mortgage loan servicing, and new commercial banking products and services – to create even more advantages and opportunities for our sales teams to serve our clients.”
