This week, we have the pleasure of welcoming Gil Arbitsman, the Chief Financial Officer at UMortgage, to the Housing News podcast. For those of you that aren't familiar with the UMortgage, it's Anthony Casa's new mortgage origination shop — which Clayton got the chance to chat with Anthony about back in December of last year. Gil is also a 2023 HW Finance Leader Awardee. But this week, the conversation with Gil takes a different approach to look at a lot of the overlooked operational considerations of business development and marketing. Clayton and Gil talk about the financial considerations of growing, acquiring and recruiting in a tough market, really getting a glimpse into it from a top-notch finance leader who has a true focus on growth.Related to this episode:Connect with Gil on LinkedInUMortgageUMortgage to acquire brokerage firm NXT Former Guaranteed Rate SVP Ravi Patel and team join UMortgage - HousingWireHousingWire's Youtube ChannelEnjoy the episode!Gathering of Eagles will bring together the nation's top residential real estate CEOs, Presidents, and C-Level leadership teams to grow, network, and set the pace for what's next in our industry. 2023's Gathering of Eagles is at Omni Barton Creek Resort in the rolling hill country of Austin, Texas from June 18-21.
