Local mortgage industry veteran Larry Steinway has pivoted to a new role and joined New American Funding (NAF). There, he will serve as vice president, area branch manager, and continue focusing on the Chicagoland area.

Most recently, Steinway was a senior vice president of mortgage lending and branch manager with Revolution Mortgage. In his first year there, he ranked as one their top five loan officers for national production and made the company’s Founder’s Club in early 2023.

Before that, Steinway spent a long tenure at Guaranteed Rate; he was originally Guaranteed Rate’s fourth employee. Throughout his career, he has also been recognized as among the top 500 loan originators, nationally, by Scotsman Guide numerous times.

Reflecting on the decision to join NAF, Steinway highlighted the firm’s breadth of available products, particularly NAF Cash, which helps pre-approved buyers to get a leg up by purchasing in cash. “It’s a significant example of NAF’s dedication to win in today’s competitive market,” Steinway told Chicago Agent.

“My goal is to continue to originate loans as a top performer in addition to helping NAF expand its footprint in the Chicagoland market,” he concluded.
