Family-owned, New American Funding is an independent mortgage lender headquartered in Orange County, California, that is dedicated to helping other families and individuals improve their quality of living through home ownership. In 2003, Rick and Patty Arvielo founded New American Funding by combining their expertise to create a progressive business that quickly grew from a 40-employee call center into a national mortgage banker and industry powerhouse.
Leveraging technology and streamlined operations, they created a lending process that became highly efficient. Rick used his technical aptitude to design the New American Funding business model around time saving software, while Patty provided crucial insight from her extensive mortgage background that ultimately brought the entire loan process in-house.
Her hands-on cultivation of a top-producing salesforce that shared her passion for the community and her drive to succeed enabled the company to achieve industry-leading loan closing times. Rick continued New American Funding’s forward momentum by capitalizing on his expansive marketing knowledge to spearhead the development of a state-of-the-art marketing division and a full in-house production studio where cutting-edge video content is routinely created.
After 19 years in the mortgage business, New American Funding is a Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and Ginnie Mae direct lender seller, and servicer that operates its own builder and real estate-based lending divisions, as well as a large loan-servicing unit. The company has achieved tremendous business success.
