Chief risk officer
United Wholesale Mortgage

With more than 45 years of experience in the mortgage industry, Linda Terrasi has been heavily involved in all aspects of the business. Right out of high school, Terrasi began working for a local bank; in just two years, she found her way to the mortgage side of the business and eventually into risk management. As the chief risk officer at United Wholesale Mortgage [UWM], Terrasi is connected to every one of the company’s 38 teams. She has spearheaded the company’s loan quality training programs and process enhancements, ensuring that both mortgage brokers and borrowers receive the best client service experience while working with UWM. An instrumental leader in the training of agencies in procedures around short sale and loss mitigation, Terrasi also serves as a mentor for the next generation of mortgage professionals. “The thing I enjoy the most is helping train the new and upcoming people in the mortgage industry,” she says. Due to her expertise and length of time in the business, Terrasi also has served as an expert witness for the FBI and has assisted the Bureau with mortgage lending investigations.
