"Two words describe the Philadelphia housing market: diversity and affordability"

Joseph A. Iacovino Jr. (NMLS #1487879) has joined Mortgage Network Inc., one of the largest independent mortgage lenders in the eastern U.S., as a loan officer in the company’s Conshohocken, Pennsylvania branch office. In his new role, Iacovino will be responsible for serving buyers and homeowners throughout the Philadelphia area.

Based in Danvers, Massachusetts, Mortgage Network provides mortgage banking services in more than 20 states through a wide variety of retail offices built to fit each local market. Mortgage Network is more focused and agile than many larger competitors, which allows the company to provide a high level of service to its customers and its business and referral partners.

Iacovino brings to Mortgage Network five years of mortgage banking experience in the Philadelphia area. Before joining Mortgage Network, he served in the commercial lending department at Royal Bank America. Iacovino graduated from Mortgage Network’s Mortgage Banker in Training (MBIT) program, through which loan officer candidates are exposed to every job position at the company. Graduates must master each step of the loan process in addition to completing online coursework and preparing for and passing their licensing examination.

“The extensive training Joseph received through our MBIT program means our customers can expect a superior level of knowledge, service and attention,” said Ted Lawler (NMLS #403956), Mortgage Network regional sales manager. “When you add that training to his previous lending experience, that’s an unbeatable combination in a loan officer.”
