Award Highlights Impact on Expanding Affordable Homeownership Opportunities

SWBC Mortgage Corporation is proud to announce that it has been named a 2025 Home Possible RISE Awards® winner by Freddie Mac in the prestigious “Fastest Growth” category for Regional Independent Mortgage Bankers.

The annual program, Recognizing Individuals for Sustained Excellence (RISE) Awards, celebrates top sellers across multiple categories for excellence with Freddie Mac Home Possible® and Housing Finance Agency (HFA) Advantage® mortgages—affordable lending solutions expanding access to low- to moderate-income borrowers.

This recognition, awarded in May 2025, underscores SWBC Mortgage’s strong dedication to expanding homeownership opportunities and addressing affordability challenges through innovative and responsible lending solutions. The company earned this distinction based on its significant loan volume growth between the first and second half of 2024.
