Sente Mortgage’s Reverse Mortgage Division Nominated as “One to Watch”

Reverse Mortgage Daily lists Sente as having one of the top reverse mortgage divisions in the U.S.

AUSTIN, Texas (September 6, 2012) – Sente Mortgage is pleased to announce that they have been nominated for Reverse Mortgage Daily’s RMD Awards 2012 within their “One to Watch in 2012” category.

This past spring, Sente Mortgage expanded their product offerings to include reverse mortgages and brought on reverse mortgage industry leader, Scott Norman, as vice president of this new division. Mr. Norman led the original campaigns to amend the Texas Constitution to allow reverse mortgages in Texas and even closed the very first reverse mortgage in the state in 2000. He founded the Texas Association of Reverse Mortgage Lenders and has been on the board of the National Reverse Mortgage Lenders Association. In 2010 Mr. Norman was the President of the Texas Mortgage Bankers Association.

The “One to Watch” award category recognizes companies around the country that are making waves in the industry, regardless of size or volume, by doing new things that will have a potential to make a lasting impact on the industry.

“I am very proud of what we have accomplished in such a short period of time. From day one, our goal has always been to be the premier mortgage company offering reverse mortgages in the State of Texas,” stated Mr. Norman.

“We are honored to be included with such an esteemed list of companies from across the U.S. As more Texan’s are forced to deal with expanding health care costs and stock market instabilities, reverse mortgages will continue to take on a greater significance. The overwhelming growth we’re seeing in Texas reinforces our belief that reverse mortgages remain a safe, cost effective and significant retirement option for senior homeowners as they assess their financial future.”

The second annual RMD Awards are the only awards recognizing excellence in the reverse mortgage industry. Voting started September 5th and wraps up on September 19th. Winners will be announced on September 21st. To place your vote, visit www.reversemortgageawards.com.
