 "MMLA - Keeping Members Informed"

President's Message

By: Julie Conley, 2023 MMLA President
Union Home Mortgage

Banquet Acceptance Speech:

The mortgage industry is like the stock market, it’s a roller coaster ride.  You must be in it for the long haul, the long term, to reap the rewards. When mortgage rates are low, rock and roll, we go to work. When mortgage rates are high, a challenge, we grind.  We don’t always want to, but we work. We serve our customers.  We work, we grind.  We find a way to make it to the next high.  So, I want to be encouraging tonight. Please stand up.  Give yourself a round of applause because you deserve it.   Read full speech here.
