The best of both. The purpose of more.
Most mortgage professionals are told they must choose between stability and agility, growth and relationships.
At First United Mortgage Group, we've built something different. We combine the strength of a trusted bank with the flexibility of a high-performing mortgage company, all within a culture centered on people, purpose, and meaningful relationships.
With local decision-making, in-house servicing, and direct access to leadership, we give you the tools to grow your business while staying focused on what matters most: helping families achieve homeownership and elevating lives in the communities we serve.
Our goal is to elevate 10 million lives by 2030. Homeownership is one of the most direct ways we get there. We believe every relationship you build is an opportunity to elevate lives, grow your impact, and create a more meaningful career.

-
Mortgage Loan Officers
Originate in the markets you know with local decisioning, portfolio flexibility, in-house servicing, modern mortgage technology, and a bank brand built on trust.
-
Mortgage Loan Assistants
Be the reason files close on time. Support originators and borrowers from application through closing, and build the foundation for a long mortgage career.
-
Processing and Underwriting
Work directly with sales and operations teams that value sound judgment, clear communication, and local relationships.
-
Closing and Servicing
Carry the loan across the finish line and stay with the customer afterward. Servicing stays in house, which means the relationship does too.

I have been in banking since 2009 and started my mortgage lending career very young. I have worked for two other well-known multi billion dollar banks in the past and truly feel that First United supports my growth and ambitions for the future. When I left my last employer, I took a leap of faith, and First United was there to catch me! They offered me immediate support and training; there was no lag time in building my new pipeline after moving my NMLS from one banking institution to another. The training, tech support, and quick communication of my direct manager made setting up new loans in a new system very easy. Jeff Meuschke, our main training coach, went a step further and put together training booklets and sessions and was available any time I called with even the smallest training questions to help us navigate loan set-ups and processing questions. First United has an outstanding presence and amazing culture! My family, referral partners, and clients love that I moved to First United and I am seeing more business and personal growth due to the move every day!

First United Mortgage has made a huge impact in my personal and professional life. This organization is backed by strong family and faith values. They always go above and beyond for their employees to ensure we have the tools for success. From a mortgage operation standpoint there is no better place to work. With operations being local, every person sincerely cares about each client and has the overall goal to make sure that client has an amazing experience with First United Mortgage. From originations to funding the entire team is family. Every person always goes the extra mile to make sure the team is successful. When I came to First United in 2017, I was consistently closing around $25 million in volume which equates to around 160 units. I wanted to scale my busi¬ness by building and improving each and every year. The business management team was able to sit down and put a plan together to make this a possibility. They were able to align operations in processing and underwriting to help take our team to the next level year after year. To this day, our team consistently closes around $100 million per year in volume and around 400 transactions. There is a company on every corner in America that offers home lending. However, the team that is First United Mortgage is the best place to be if you are wanting to originate loans at a high volume while offering the best customer service that a mortgage company has to offer.
