Tech startup Morty connects with PA loan officers

First-time homebuyers using tech startup Morty in Pennsylvania can now connect with a local mortgage expert.

"Morty is providing digital savvy borrowers with unparalleled personalization and human control to the first-time homebuyer market in Pennsylvania," said Morty's Co-Founder, Nora Apsel. "It's more convenient for consumers and cost effective for originators but a key ingredient to the process is on-site licensed mortgage brokers who are a necessary part of the process that can guide you to the right loan.”

The New York headquartered firm operates across 34 states and DC and offers mortgage loans from more than 20 lenders with verified pre-approvals in as little as five minutes using its Home Financing Score™ and real-time loan pricing. 

Apsel says that some first-time homebuyers want to interact online or by phone but others want face-to-face interaction.

“We're building a team of local mortgage loan officers who know the state well because home buying is regional,” he said. “Over the past year, we've seen 250% month-over-month growth in the underserved first-time homebuyer marketplace, particularly in our active Philadelphia accounts. There's no better time than now to serve this market."
