The Expert Network© celebrates its newest member, Shimmy Braun
Chicago, IL, December 20, 2016 (Newswire.com) - Shimmy Braun, Senior Vice President of Mortgage Lending, Guaranteed Rate, has joined The Expert Network©, an invitation-only service for distinguished professionals. Mr. Braun has been chosen as a Distinguished Mortgage Professional™ based on peer reviews and ratings, dozens of recognitions, and accomplishments achieved throughout his career.
Mr. Braun outshines others in his field due to his extensive educational background, recognitions, and career longevity. He has been one of Guaranteed Rate's top loan producers since 2008. Ranked as the 26th highest volume originator in the country by Scotsman Guide Magazine in 2015*, Mr. Braun is best known for his unmatched level of client service and integrity along with offering competitive rates and low closing cost mortgages. To date, he has originated over 1 billion dollars in mortgages at Guaranteed Rate**.
"In the sixteen years originating I have priced loans the same way. There is no hard sell. People get treated with respect. I look at myself as a friend helping with a loan and not this intimidating businessman. Always with integrity. In the over a billion dollars and thousands of loans I have done I have never been accused of impropriety or dishonesty."
Shimmy Braun, Senior Vice President of Mortgage Lending, Guaranteed Rate
With nearly 20 years dedicated to the mortgage industry, Mr. Braun brings a wealth of knowledge to his industry. When asked what inspired him to pursue a career in mortgages, Mr. Braun said:
"I went to Rabbinical College to study to become a Rabbi. When I realized that I did not want to pursue that I didn’t have any formal business education. My father was doing commercial mortgages so I figured I would give residential mortgages a try."
As a thought-leader in his field, Mr. Braun's success has been rooted in his philosophy of consistency, integrity, and professionalism. A true leader, he imbues his team with these qualities, allowing them to work together to close large a volume of loans—ninety loans in August 2016***—while maintaining a high level of customer care and satisfaction. This dedication to his clients has earned Shimmy and his team a reputation for unmatched service and results. Realtors, attorneys, financial advisors, and past clients are happy to refer business to him because it makes them look good when they give customers a great experience. He noted:
"In the sixteen years originating I have priced loans the same way. There is no hard sell. People get treated with respect. I look at myself as a friend helping with a loan and not this intimidating businessman. Always with integrity. In the over a billion dollars and thousands of loans I have done I have never been accused of impropriety or dishonesty."
For all his success, Mr. Braun has never lost touch with his roots. Though his original dream of becoming a Rabbi never came to fruition, he is still an active member of the Jewish community and dedicates much of his time and efforts to giving back to those in need. In 2011, he received the Community Service Award from the Chicago Torah Network for his charitable work.
