Veritas Funding today announced that Ivory Homes has chosen Veritas Funding as its preferred lender. As the preferred lender, Veritas Funding takes on a chief role in advising, qualifying and securing residential loans for Ivory home buyers.

“Veritas Funding adds a sensible approach to the mortgage experience,” said Tim Roush, President and CEO of Veritas Funding. “Today’s lending process can be challenging. However, at Veritas, we deliver loans on time and as promised while keeping homeowners informed every step of the way. Veritas Funding and Ivory Homes share a common vision of offering clients an exceptional customer experience. We are very excited about our new alliance with Ivory Homes.”

Both Veritas Funding and Ivory Homes are growing, Utah-based companies creating Utah jobs. Founded in 2004, Veritas Funding is a full service mortgage lender with “in-house” underwriting, closing and funding capabilities. The company’s ability to internally manage all aspects of the mortgage process allows it to deliver borrowers superior customer service, competitive rates and fees, and quick decision-making.

Real estate data provider CoreLogic consistently ranks Veritas Funding as a top “purchase-money” lender in the State of Utah. The company employs roughly 150 people at 12 Utah locations. To better serve customers of Ivory Homes, Veritas Funding will open three additional branch offices in Salt Lake, Layton, and Lehi formerly operated by Ivory Mortgage.

“After operating our own mortgage company for nine years, our decision to make Veritas Funding our preferred lender is entirely focused on doing what is best for our customers,” said Clark Ivory, CEO of Ivory Homes. “We have been impressed by Veritas' operational excellence and their commitment to customer service. While mortgage lending has become complicated and delays have become the norm, Veritas has refused to make excuses. The Veritas team is committed to a level of service that will enhance and support our own commitment to serving each customer.”
