Miami Lakes, Fla. – J.I. Kislak Mortgage LLC (Kislak Mortgage) announced today the expansion of its presence in Florida with the opening of its newest consumer mortgage loan origination office in Melbourne, Fla. The office currently has four loan officers as well as a local processor.
“With a new location in Melbourne, potential homebuyers in the area now have the opportunity to work with a local Florida lender and top-quality mortgage loan officers who specialize in their market,” said Eddie Scott, senior vice president and southeast divisional manager of Kislak Mortgage. “Melbourne is an important market for us as we continue to expand our geographical footprint throughout the State.”
To lead the Melbourne office, Kislak Mortgage hired Scott Levy who has more than 17 years of experience in the mortgage industry.
