Nations Lending has brought in two seasoned home loan professionals to run its new branch in the Denver Metro area.

The Cleveland-headquartered lender recently opened its fifth office in Denver. It appointed Matthew Collett and Andrew Scripter to oversee the branch as producing sales manager and branch manager, respectively.

Before joining Nations Lending, the duo has previously worked together at Fairway Independent Mortgage, Cherry Creek Mortgage, and, most recently, SWBC Mortgage. Prior to that, Collett spent almost seven years with Wells Fargo Home Mortgage while Scripter served as sales manager of the firm’s Denver Metro area location for 14 years.

“As Nations continues to grow rapidly and serve borrowers all across the country, it’s important we bring people like Andrew and Matthew into the fold and into the family,” said Nino Saso, divisional sales manager at Nations Lending. “I’m confident both will enjoy many years of success at Nations, and we look forward to providing them with the marketing and technology support they need.”

“Nations really does feel like a family, and that gels nicely with my personal commitment of providing the highest level of customer service in this industry,” Collett said.

“It’s great getting the band back together. Matt and I are once again going to be building something amazing here,” Scripter said.
