Mark Rosanes is a journalist and feature writer at Key Media, where he has covered the mortgage industry for Mortgage Professional since 2020. He writes guides and in-depth features on residential and commercial mortgages, broker industry news, and housing market and rates.

Mark has worked in editorial since 2009. Before joining Key Media, he spent a decade at Global Sources, the Hong Kong-listed B2B sourcing platform and one of Alibaba's largest competitors, where he rose from copy editor to managing editor across industry-specific product verticals and trade magazines.

Earlier in his career, he worked as a segment producer in sports broadcasting, covering professional basketball, boxing, volleyball, and regional multi-sport events.

His work focuses on translating complex mortgage topics into practical guidance for brokers, lenders, and housing market professionals.

How I think about writing for this industry…

“Housing and mortgage markets move fast, and the brokers and lenders I write for are making consequential decisions on compressed timelines. I try to write in a way that keeps pace with that, translating rate movements, regulatory changes, and market shifts into the kind of grounded analysis that holds up when a client is sitting across the desk.”
