Orion Lending is a Nationwide Mortgage Banker founded by proven industry leaders who bring a legacy of success and ambition to the Mortgage Banking industry.
Orion Lending was named after the Orion constellation which is located on the celestial equator and prominently visible throughout the world. This constellation is named after a huntsman in Greek mythology whom Zeus placed among the stars as the constellation of Orion.
Also, Orion is pronounced O-ri-on not Ori-on as many may think.
At Orion Lending we combine innovative technology, a wide array of products and competitive pricing to assist our network of brokers in growing and developing their referral business and clientele.
Our mission is to be the leading nationwide provider of residential mortgage products. We will achieve this by exceeding the expectations of our broker partners while meeting the needs of their clients and referral sources. All of our long-term strategies and short-term actions will be molded by a set of core values that are shared by each and every associate of Orion Lending. Satisfying our customers is the primary goal and a fundamental element of our mission.
The Orion Family gives back to the community and local charities in need throughout the year.
We encourage our team members to also donate time outside of work to their local communities. Many team members find themselves regularly visiting local animal shelters and manning food drives for the homeless, to name a few.
We are proud to have contributed to Children’s Hospital of Orange County (CHOC) and Candlelighters of Las Vegas. As a family-centric mortgage company, we recognize the value of giving back.
Orion’s culture is quite unique! As part of the OrionCan culture, we believe in a synergistic relationship among all team members.
This allows us to ensure everyone gets the best from Orion. Therefore, in everything we do, we always keep in mind the needs of both parties.
We recognize the tenure of our dedicated team members, including our Three-Year Anniversaries which awards our employees’ contributions with our legendary, completely customized bobbleheads!
Additionally, we acknowledge and reward not only our Top Producers but our Top Op’s Team Members as well through our President's Club! These recognition trips are designed for our shining stars to unwind and socialize. Past destinations include Cabo San Lucas, Destin and several other exotic locations.
No matter how much Orion expands, it is imperative to the Founders that the company still maintains the small company feel.
