Direct Mortgage Loans is excited to share that it has secured its spot on the Scotsman Guide Top Workplace 2024 List. This year, we are proud to have secured the ranking for the first time in Direct Mortgage Loans’ history which could not have been possible without the efforts of our DML family!

Every year, the Scotsman Guide releases its Top Workplace Rankings, spotlighting and commending mortgage companies nationwide. Companies are evaluated in various categories, which showcase their commitment to their employees and culture. Those excelling in multiple categories earn a spot on the list.

Here are just a few of the reasons DML has been awarded the title of a Top Workplace!

DML’s Mission, Vision, & Values

Our Mission, Vision, and Values guide our actions both within and beyond the workplace. We are dedicated to delivering exceptional mortgage solutions and building lasting relationships. Our vision is to lead the mortgage industry in innovation and customer experience. Our values emphasize effective, proactive, and respectful communication that fosters teamwork, transparency, and accountability with our clients, partners, and each other. The driving force behind our success is a solution-focused attitude that consistently delivers extraordinary results.

DML Culture

At DML, we work hard and have fun. We’re a family of professionals passionate about making a difference in our clients’ lives. We’re driven, focused, and set the bar high for ourselves and each other, but we also know that work should be enjoyable. So, we have created a culture of collaboration and support through our masterclasses, internal recognition meetings, sales roundtables, and collaborative forums. We believe that when we work together, we achieve great things.

Recognizing our DML Family

We believe that our team members are our greatest asset. Therefore, we ensure that we regularly recognize and appreciate their hard work. To do this, every month we hold recognition meetings where we celebrate our top performers from all departments. We also encourage our employees to give shoutouts to their colleagues who have gone above and beyond. Moreover, once every quarter, we present the “Mission, Vision, & Values” award to honor those who truly embody the core principles of DML.

Career Growth & Development

Ongoing coaching and development are crucial for career growth. We provide a six-month training program for originators who aspire to become a successful branch manager. Our executive leadership team leads DML YoU’s training program, which is designed to develop crucial leadership skills. Additionally, all branch managers receive structured coaching through DML Elite. Weekly coaching calls are conducted by CEO Michael Naylor, President Ashley Mills, Chief Production Officer Dean Johnson, or Chief Strategy Officer Jan Ozga to guide and hold the branch managers accountable for their goals and activities.
