CMG Financial Honored With Freddie Mac Home Possible RISE Award for Education

SAN RAMON, Calif., Sept. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- CMG Financial, a well-capitalized privately held mortgage banking firm headquartered in San Ramon, California, was recognized by Freddie Mac with the Home Possible RISE Award^SM for Education. The annual program, RISE (Recognizing Individuals for Sustained Excellence), salutes Freddie Mac's top clients across multiple categories for excellence with Home Possible^® mortgages - Freddie Mac's affordable lending solution for low-to-moderate-income home buyers.

CMG Financial earned the Home Possible RISE Award for Education for its ongoing initiatives to educate first-time home buyers and low-to-moderate-income buyers about the numerous avenues to home purchase. Most first-time home buyers know the FHA Loan is a low down payment option, but fewer first-time home buyers know about conventional options. With the FHA Loan, the borrower is saddled with a Mortgage Insurance Premium (MIP) through the life of the loan. With Freddie Mac Home Possible^®, the borrower still gets the lower down payment option and only has to pay mortgage insurance until they've built up enough equity in the home.

"Making homeownership possible depends on a community effort. We are fortunate to have access to a community of informed and enthusiastic loan officers willing to educate first-time home buyers and each other," said Paul Akinmade, Chief Strategy Officer of CMG Financial. "The Freddie Mac Home Possible^® loan is one of the valuable programs CMG Financial provides its loan officers to help first-time home buyers purchase a home."

The awards combined volume from national Home Possible and Home Possible Advantage mortgage options. Lenders must be active Freddie Mac Seller/Servicers or Housing Finance Agencies, and correspondent lenders and brokers must originate through those Seller/Servicers.
