By Administrator

[Washington DC] – Gum Tree Mortgage is proud to announce its recognition by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) as the #1 USDA Single Family Housing Guaranteed Loan Program Lender in the state of Mississippi for 2024. This marks the second consecutive year that Gum Tree Mortgage has achieved this prestigious ranking. 

In addition to its state-level success, Gum Tree Mortgage also secured the 2nd place nationally in the USDA 2024 Top State Lender Champion category. This recognition was unveiled during the 2024 National Lender of the Year Awards Ceremony held in Washington, D.C. on June 13, 2024. 

The USDA Single Family Housing Guaranteed Loan Program helps lenders work with low- and moderate-income households living in rural areas to make homeownership a reality. Providing affordable homeownership opportunities promotes prosperity, which in turn creates thriving communities and improves the quality of life in rural areas. The award highlights the company's dedication and excellence in serving the rural communities of Mississippi. 

Kenneth McNeal, Co-Founder and President of Gum Tree Mortgage, expressed pride in the recognition:  

“This award is a testament to our unwavering commitment to helping families achieve the dream of homeownership. We are honored to contribute to the economic growth and stability of rural America.” 

The USDA presented awards in several categories during the ceremony, acknowledging the efforts of various lending partners across the nation.  

Gum Tree Mortgage remains steadfast to providing exceptional service and support to rural communities. This award underscores our mission to make homeownership accessible to everyone, regardless of their location.
