CrossCountry Mortgage Climbs 1,360 Positions on 2021 'Inc. 5000' List

CLEVELAND, Aug. 17, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- CrossCountry Mortgage, a top 10 retail mortgage lender serving customers in all 50 states, climbed 1,360 positions, to 682nd, on the 2021 "Inc. 5000" list of America's fastest-growing private companies. This is the eighth time since 2012 that the Greater Cleveland company has appeared on the prestigious annual list, which over its 39-year history has featured such fast-rising organizations as Intuit, Zappos, Under Armour, Patagonia and Microsoft.

CrossCountry Mortgage's impressive rise in the 2021 rankings, from 2,042nd last year, is based on its 714% three-year revenue growth.

"Our employees are our number-one growth engine because they provide the best customer experience in the mortgage industry, hands down," said CrossCountry Founder and CEO Ronald Leonhardt, Jr. "Financing a home can be a very complex, time consuming and unpredictable process. Our people help eliminate those hassles so customers can keep moving forward and ultimately enjoy the benefits of homeownership."

"Building one of the fastest-growing companies in America in any year is a remarkable achievement. Building one in the crisis we've lived through is just plain amazing," said Inc. Editor-in-Chief Scott Omelianuk. "This kind of accomplishment comes with hard work, smart pivots, great leadership and the help of a whole lot of people."
