Integrity Home Loan may look outside Florida to fill new loan officer positions with executive training and perks

LAKE MARY, Fla. --- Integrity Home Loan training program initial response has been excellent but Florida’s largest privately-owned residential mortgage provider may now look outside Florida to help fill new positions as loan officer. Matt Malloy, president of Integrity Home Loan of Central Florida, Inc., said he’s offering to pay qualified candidates the cost of relocating to Central Florida, subsidize their living expenses, provide an executive training program and offer a first year salary base of $36,000 with potential to double that. Second year earnings at Integrity Home Loan typically pass the $100,000 mark, Malloy said. Integrity ranks as one of the region’s largest and most active mortgage lenders with nine Florida branches including the headquarters in Lake Mary and locations in Coral Springs, West Palm Beach, Jacksonville, Orlando, Tampa and in the Detroit suburb of Southfield, Mich. Malloy opened Integrity’s executive training program last year to turn candidates into qualified loan officers. Malloy said Integrity should hire as many as 30 loan officer candidates this year as it expands existing offices and opens new offices. Many of Integrity’s new executives may come from outside Florida, Malloy said. “We have been very successful at getting the word out in Florida but we are growing and expanding, so our need for energetic, enthusiastic loan offer candidates is growing right along with us,” Malloy said. Last year Integrity Home Loan provided more than 2,400 mortgage loans that total more than $500 million. Malloy projects Integrity will serve up more than 3,200 residential mortgage loans in 2013. In January, Integrity reported it closed on more than 300 mortgage loans that total more than $55 million.
