American Financial Resources 

Laura Brandao joined the wholesale and correspondent division at American Financial Resources in 2007. There, she’s responsible for processing, underwriting, closing and post-closing activities. She also serves on the executive committee and is critical to the development and implementation of the company’s quality control procedures. 

Brandao’s strengths include inspiring AFR staff to keep the loan process focused on the families behind each transaction.
