Kim Schenck has joined the correspondent lending sales team at Click n’ Close as correspondent manager.
Schenck has more than 30 years of experience in correspondent lending and capital markets. She has a strong background in correspondent lending, loan acquisitions and secondary marketing.
Her career includes leadership roles at Essex Mortgage, Freedom Mortgage, Bank of America, Greenwich Capital Financial and Sandia Mortgage Corporation, where she built and managed high-performing sales teams, drove strategic growth and developed pricing and rate strategies for large-scale lending operations.
In her new role, Schenck will focus on the expansion of Click and Close’s proprietary down payment assistance (DPA) program, which helps more borrowers achieve homeownership.
“Kim’s extensive experience and proven ability to drive results make her an ideal addition to our team,” says Jeff Bode, owner and CEO of Click n’ Close, in a release. “Her focus on our DPA program will help us continue delivering innovative, affordable solutions to our partners and borrowers.”
Coinciding with Schenck joining the firm, Michael Lima, managing director, is shifting his focus back to whole loan trading—a division he initially helped build to bring liquidity to lenders during market disruptions.
