About V.I.P. Mortgage, Inc.
V.I.P. Mortgage, Inc. wasn’t started as a company, but as an idea. An idea that the mortgage lending process could be simplified. An idea that the dream of homeownership is very much alive and well. And, an idea that the people working on your loan understand what you are going through because they have been there themselves.
Founded by Marine veteran Jay Barbour in 2006, V.I.P. Mortgage, Inc. has grown from a single office with two loan officers in Scottsdale, AZ, to over 20 brick and mortar branches (across many states) with a few hundred licensed loan officers. V.I.P. Mortgage, Inc. funds several billion dollars in loans annually and consistently ranks at the top of numerous industry rankings.
While V.I.P. Mortgage, Inc. has grown significantly over the years, we haven’t lost sight of our core values; to give back, provide exemplary customer service and not only meet, but exceed, each customer’s individual needs. V.I.P. Mortgage, Inc. doesn’t just do business with customers, but builds customers for life.
