Nations Lending has hired Nino Saso as division sales manager, the company announced.
The company said Saso will head its expansion efforts throughout a 12-state territory in the West. He will be based in San Jose, Calif.
“We are excited to add Nino, a proven leader, to the team,” Nations Lending Executive Vice President Corey Caster said in a release. “His experience in the West will be huge and we are confident he’ll make a big impact here at Nations.”
Saso most recently served as a divisional manager at Mutual of Omaha.
He has more than 30 years of combined experience in mortgage loan origination and building sales teams and territories from the ground up.
“Nations checks all the boxes — a well-capitalized company with the ability and desire to grow aggressively, a committed and engaged leadership team, a deep technology offering, progressive marketing, and an unbelievable company culture,” Saso said. “But what surprised me about the company was the depth of support that already exists. From that standpoint, Nations already looks like the top-10 mortgage banker it wants to become.”
