ANN ARBOR, MI — Thanks to a customer first mentality and a deep connection with southeastern Michigan, Gold Star Mortgage is pleased to stand out among the rest as the leader for government loans in Wayne County, Michigan. Gold Star now has a leading market share of 7.55%. The next closest was Bank of America with at 6.97%. Wayne County has a population just shy of 2 million people, ranking it as the 13th most populous county in the United States.
“Wayne County was hard hit by the economic recession and many lenders have left the area due to decreasing home values, which allowed us to step in to help borrowers who were having mortgage trouble,” he said. Gold Star has also expanded its financial services division to take in more clients who were turned away by other lenders and brokers, including those with damaged credit and those with upside-down mortgages. “One of our primary goals is to offer unsurpassed financial advice to those seeking to obtain their dream home or simply better mortgage terms; some of the most touching letters that I have ever read come from our clients that we were able to put into their first home,” Milstein said.
Gold Star Mortgage also reported increased market shares in Southeast Michigan (from 3.2% to 4.05%) and in its corporate backyard, Washtenaw County (increased market share to 6.66%).
