CrossCountry Mortgage (CCM), is the Nation’s #1 Retail Mortgage Lender for the second year in a row by both Scotsman Guide’s Top Retail Mortgage Lender list and Mortgage Executive Magazine’s Top 50 Mortgage Companies in America list.
This back-to-back recognition underscores CCM’s sustained growth, operational excellence and unwavering commitment to helping families achieve homeownership. In 2024, CCM financed 1 in every 37 home purchases nationwide, averaging 435 loans funded per business day and helping more than 88,000 borrowers.
Leading the way in mortgage lending
“We have a longstanding vision of becoming the most referred mortgage lender in every community we serve,” said Ron Leonhardt, Founder and CEO of CrossCountry Mortgage. “It’s a vision that has shaped our business and something we strive for every single day. Earning this ranking for the second year in a row isn’t just about volume; it’s about the impact we’re making in communities across the nation. Helping more people achieve homeownership, especially in a complex market, is what drives us. We’re proud of this achievement, but even more proud of the team behind it and the families we’ve helped along the way.”
CCM, founded in 2003, has become a trusted destination for borrowers and top mortgage professionals alike, thanks to the company’s culture centered around innovation, opportunity and customer-focused solutions. The company’s momentum continues to drive forward following a number of industry accolades, recently having 504 loan originators, the most for one lender, ranked on the 2025 Scotsman Guide Top Originators list and recognition of 45 loan officers being named to Mortgage Executive Magazine’s Top 200 Mortgage Originators in America list.
