Season 3 is in full swing, and we’re excited to chat with Larry Bailey, CEO of Mortgage Workflow Partners. Larry is a big proponent of rolling up your sleeves, getting under the hood, and analyzing how a business really works. Not how the CEO thinks it works, but how it actually works.

For this week’s Lending Leaders, Tim Nguyen, CEO and Co-Founder of BeSmartee, shares his thoughts on the importance of balancing good business practices with a sense of social responsibility. He delves into his family history, its impact on his business philosophy, and how that philosophy has grown with him and his company.

To kick off yet another season of exciting and impactful discussions about the mortgage industry and related subjects, LodeStar Co-Founders Jim and Dave sit down with Alayna to discuss their not-so-proudest moments as business owners.

To conclude the LodeStar Lending Leaders Summer Session, we’re capping off our weeks-long discussion of how a mortgage insider buys a home. Alayna interviews Jim and his wife Sarah and invites them to reflect on their home buying process.

This week, Jim, Dave, and Alayna take an opportunity to pop some champagne and celebrate LodeStar placing on the 2022 Inc. Magazine list of America’s 5000 fastest growing private companies.

Welcome back to the Summer Session of LodeStar’s Lending Leaders! This week, Jim gives an insider’s view on closing on his home purchase.

It wouldn’t be a LodeStar Lending Leaders Summer Session if we didn’t include an episode about generational differences. This week we tapped our resident Gen Zer, Fiona, to discuss differences between Gen Z and Millennials.

Welcome to part three of Jim’s experience buying a home as a mortgage professional.  Today we’re picking his brain about the mortgage process and how being the CEO of a mortgage software company helped him navigate the ins and outs of the process.

We’re back to talking about Jim’s experience buying a home as a mortgage professional. On part two, we’re diving into his experience using a realtor, the value of realtors, and how his view of realtors changed during the homebuying process.
