Van Nuys

New American Funding, a leader in the mortgage industry, is expanding its territory across the Greater San Fernando Valley with the grand opening of its Van Nuys branch. The new location, which is on 16600 Sherman Way, Suite 100, will celebrate with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Wednesday, June 20 at 4:30 PM PDT, along with the Van Nuys Chamber of Commerce and Congressman Tony Cardenas.

The Van Nuys location will be a full-service branch, providing a range of purchase and refinance loan options, offer first-time homebuyer programs and help facilitate down payment assistance programs. The branch will offer Jumbo Loan Programs and service the needs of those looking to finance homes over conforming loan amounts.

“We’re committed to helping our clients and finding the right loan program for them,” said Branch Manager Ed Banuelos (NMLS #794093). “We’re excited to bring New American Funding’s presence to the San Fernando Valley and offer a wide range of loan options that will fit our clients’ needs.”

Banuelos, a native to the area, was identified to lead the expansion due to his track record in the mortgage industry. He brings more than 30 years of experience to the company and will lead the market expansion as branch manager. “I came on board with New American Funding because we operate differently from other lenders and we have a get it done mindset, which fits my personality,” said Banuelos.

“Ed is an extraordinary asset to our company,” said Regional Manager Virginia Martinez.

Banuelos looks forward to expanding the company’s footprint and assisting Real Estate Agent Builder Business partners and clients with industry-leading close times, exceptional customer service and localized operations support.

This is the second branch to open in the valley with another location in Porter Ranch.
