Stonegate Mortgage has named a new third party origination (TPO) Pacific regional manager. The firm said that Lori McLaughlin will lead TPO sales teams in the Pacific region, including Washington, Oregon, Montana, Idaho and the greater Los Angeles area up through central California. 

MacLaughlin, who has more than two decades of industry experience, will focus on selling products in all four TPO channels: broker, delegated and non-delegated correspondent, and bulk mandatory. 

Most recently, she worked as vice president and correspondent account manager for SunTrust Mortgage. She also held various other positions at SunTrust, managing national wholesale production and operations

McLaughlin will be based in Seattle and report directly to Scott Houp, Stonegate senior vice president and TPO Western Division manager. 

"Lori is focused on providing her clients with the products and strategic solutions they need to maximize their growth,” said Steve Landes, national sales director for Stonegate. “We are excited to have her join the team and continue to build our presence in the Pacific Region.”
