Pineapple is led by a team that understands how the dynamics of the mortgage industry are changing and have taken the right steps to adapt to that new paradigm in a way that lifts both of us up to be the solution of choice for future borrowers. Pineapple provides access to the resources I need to grow my business as Principal Broker and doesn’t come with a cookie-cutter solution for all brokerages. They identify how each brokerage is unique and then focus on the things I need to succeed and continuously adjust that service offering over time to be providing constant value to Mortgauge.

I have been in the mortgage industry for over 20 years and I have finally found a brokerage I can call home. The support, tools, CRM, Underwriting team, and daily training are the best in the industry. I am so proud to be a part of this team and it’s incredible leaders and mentors.

Mortgage Agent, Pineapple

I joined Pineapple in 2019 solely for the CRM system. This system was amazing, it kept track of everything for me. Little did I know it’s full capabilities, I have saved so much time using Pineapple’s technologies, AND it helps my clients save money – a win win! It wasn’t until I joined the brokerage that I really and truly learned about the people at this brokerage – the Broker-Owners really care about your success, they give us all of the tools and training we need to get there. My fellow mortgage agents aren’t my competition, they are my accountability partners. Everyone here just wants the best for you!
