Helping people get home has always been the goal, and it means a great deal when the broader industry recognizes the team making that happen every single day.
We're proud to announce that 61 of our Mortgage Bankers have been named to Scotsman Guide's 2026 Top Originator rankings, one of the most respected individual achievement honors in the residential mortgage industry. We were also recognized as a 2026 Scotsman Guide Top Workplace, and we could not be more grateful.
"Since 2010, Scotsman Guide has ranked tens of thousands of the nation's top producing residential mortgage originators," and this annual ranking is widely regarded as the industry's gold standard for recognizing individual achievement and top-tier performance. The recognition is backed by a rigorous verification and audit process, with qualification thresholds set to represent the top 3 to 5 percent of the nation's most prolific mortgage originators.
We're especially proud to celebrate the whopping 61 Atlantic Bay Mortgage Bankers who earned this amazing distinction:

In addition to the individual honors, we were named a 2026 Scotsman Guide Top Workplace. The distinction recognizes mortgage organizations that "excel in company culture, leadership, employee engagement and workplace satisfaction," evaluated through a comprehensive survey process designed to measure how effectively organizations create supportive environments where employees feel empowered to grow and succeed. That is a standard we don't take lightly, and one our team works hard to uphold every day.
For us, these two recognitions together mean something. We've always believed that a strong culture and strong performance go hand in hand, dating all the way back to 1996, and seeing that reflected through honors like these is something quite extraordinary. Our team of more than 600 employees reflects that commitment, with an average tenure of 7 years across the organization and 7.5 years among our Mortgage Bankers.
None of this happens without the people repping the “A” on their “jerseys,” or without the customers and communities who trust us to show up for them.
Congratulations, team!
