Mark Metaxas

After attending Colorado College and serving in the US Army, Mark spent three years learning the Real Estate business from the largest independently owned Real Estate company in the country.

In June of 1979, Mark became a loan officer in Hunterdon County, and during his six year tenure in that position, he originated over $200 million in mortgages for approximately 2,000 families. Mark subsequently became a Vice President/Branch Manager for a major mortgage banker in upstate New York- a position he held for five years. During that time, Mark was responsible for originating nearly $1.4 Billion in mortgages for 15,000 families. In 1992 Mark moved to Philadelphia when he was promoted to a Regional Vice President’s position. He was responsible for an additional $5 billion in loan volume and propelled his firm to market leadership in his region.

Mark recognized however, that the national company was more product than market driven, and was frustrated that he was not able to consistently tailor his products to his clients’ unique needs. He also felt that this was a function of his employer’s size, which limited their flexibility in tailoring client-driven solutions. Seizing the opportunity to build on his prior successes and to capitalize on this need for a market driven, “locally owned and operated mortgage company” focused on the unique needs of the Philadelphia market, Mark founded Corridor Mortgage in 1996 which merged with First American Mortgage in 2005.

First American continues to hone its culture to ensure it is a market leader in product selection and service.

Mark currently resides in Yardley, PA. He is married with three daughters and one grandson. In his spare time, Mark enjoys golfing and hunting.
