“The biggest opportunity for NFM Lending this year is to be selective with our origination recruits and focus on better, not bigger. Fortunately, the demand for service and product remains very high with a smaller supply of human capital across the industry. We believe this is a great time to be selective as well as bring new blood into the mortgage space and train them up.”

“I am truly honored to be recognized again amongst so many spectacular leaders in our industry,” said Silverman. “All I can do is continue to work towards being the best leader I can be for my company and those that I am blessed to have on my team making me look good.

“Of all the awards, the Best Companies to Work For award means by far the most to me,” said David Silverman, founder and CEO of NFM Lending. “It’s not about numbers or profitability; rather, it’s about how we treat each other and what we stand for as a company.
