Our Vision

Purpose

We exist to improve the financial lives of our clients, business partners, and teammates — empowering them to pursue their goals and dreams. As we succeed, we create opportunities for underserved kids in our community.

Values

Relationship-focused

We have meaningful, unique conversations with our clients and business partners to build a clear understanding of their financial needs and help them achieve their goals.

Growth-oriented

We employ people who think big, dream boldly, create fearlessly, and bring a positive attitude to our team. We support them when needed while giving them the autonomy to work in ways that bring out the best in themselves and the people around them.

Collaborative culture

We operate as one team, offering support that goes far beyond tools and technology. We work hard, support each other, and celebrate each other's successes.

Excellence, always

We consistently evaluate, refine, and improve how we work to deliver outstanding results.

Generosity

We share our time, resources, and energy to improve the lives of our clients, business partners, teammates, and the community we serve.

Approach

Our team treats all clients and partners as relationships, not transactions.

Working with us, clients take meaningful steps toward improving their financial future. Our ability to broker allows us to offer mortgage pricing that is better than most competitors, which means we can quickly move past rate comparisons and into thoughtful conversations about wealth building. By combining competitive rates with genuine relationships and exceptional service, our clients consistently refer their friends, family, and coworkers to us for their mortgage needs.

Where We're Headed

We are committed to adding real value to our teammates, clients, and business partners. We host events throughout the year to support this:

• Trust/Forward TED-style events host 3–4 speakers who deliver quick-hit talks at local venues for loan officers and their business partners.
• Wealth-building events cover topics like estate planning, tax strategies, and using home equity to benefit our teammates, their business partners, and their clients.

Community impact is core to our purpose. To advance that commitment, we hold additional events:

• Thanks & Giving is our annual event to gather toys for Doernbecher Children's Hospital.
• Poker tournaments benefit a chosen local charity or organization that helps underserved kids in our community.

What Success Looks Like

We set ambitious goals for ourselves because we believe great outcomes come from high standards and shared success.

• Mortgage Trust helps 970 families finance their homes each year.
• Mortgage Trust rises to the #1 medium-sized business on Oregon Business Magazine's "100 Best Places to Work" list.
• Mortgage Trust has a material and lasting impact on our community beyond mortgages.
