President of New American Funding, Patty Arvielo, has been selected by Housing Wire as one of their 2014 Influential Women in Housing. This award recognizes the outstanding efforts of 30 women in both the mortgage banking and real estate industries for their outstanding efforts over the past 12 months. 2014 marks the fourth year of this annual award ceremony.

In 2014 alone, Patty, along with her husband and co-founder Rick, have grown New American Funding exponentially; they now have over 1,400 employees and over 60 branch locations. They opened a second call center in Michigan, and a servicing center in Texas. The company has also succeeded in having three record breaking months from June to September 2014, and Patty believes that going into 2015, the team will continue to grow New American Funding, driving the housing market even further.

Patty was also honored this year by the National Latina Business Women Association as Entrepreneur Leader of the Year, was recognized by the National Association of Women in Real Estate Business as a Roaring Twenty recipient, and was nominated by The Orange County Business Journal for the 2014 Women in Business Award.

The New American Funding team couldn’t be more proud of Patty and continue to wish her success in her many endeavors.
