Countrywide Mortgage Company

In March of 1969, Countrywide Credit Industries was founded by Angelo Mozilo and David Loeb.  The mortgage subsidiary was at that time called Countrywide Funding Corporation.  Although they had a public offering in only six months, they didn’t raise much capital.  Undaunted, they moved their fledgling company to Los Angeles where the housing market was booming.  Offering FHA and VA loans only proved unprofitable, and Countrywide soon  formulated a new business plan--branch offices like banks.  This strategy soon demonstrated its viability and five more branches followed swiftly.   Branches were opened in other states, and soon Countrywide was employing advanced technology to store its records. 

Already a technology leader, Countrywide branched its service to become a leader in the production of loans to low and moderate income families and minorities.  It had long been a mission of Countrywide  to lower the barriers to homeownership, and it was succeeding.  It was also succeeding in exporting its business profile.  A 1999 merger with the UK company Woolrich, PLC. combined Countrywide’s technology and efficiency with Woolrich’s local market expertise.  Countrywide now had a global presence.   Continuing to grow and evolve, Countrywide chose a new corporate name to reflect a more complete picture of who they are and where they are headed.  Countrywide Credit Industries had evolved into Countrywide Financial Corporation.

Countrywide offers many types of loans, and applying for them is easy.  Apply online, schedule a consultation or call to speak to a loan consultant.  In the mean time, here are some of their offerings:
