Featured in Yahoo! Finance, ABC, NBC, Fox, The Daily Herald, The International Business Times, CA Headlines, and others, Jonathan Hallstead is an award-winning mortgage visionary with a keen eye for innovation who has enjoyed massive success not only as a top-performing producer but also as a trailblazing leader, guiding mortgage professionals toward incredible levels of business growth. His ability to elevate the mortgage experience and continually identify new ways to streamline procedures and expand services has proven massively effective in generating lifelong client partnerships built on experience and trust.

 

After a quick rise from VP, Divisional Manager Retail Lending to Divisional President, Jonathan now serves as Divisional President, where he has further expanded his reach, now overseeing branch growth, sales training, and the implementation of new innovations that not only boost sales but create a culture of support and mentorship that empowers driven mortgage professionals to thrive.

 

His forward-thinking approach and impactful strategies have earned him an array of prestigious awards and accolades, including:

  • NMP 2020 40 Most Influential Mortgage Professionals Under 40

Alongside these many recognitions, Jonathan spearheaded the creation of a division-exclusive marketing team, allowing our teams to leverage agency-level marketing services not traditionally seen in mortgage lending. Combining this resource with the division’s processing center within the Gold Star Mortgage Financial umbrella, lenders are able to achieve mortgage solutions that delight homeowners from start to finish.

Taking pride in sharing his best practices with the mortgage industry and mentoring emerging lending professionals, Jonathan serves on the board of directors for the California Association of Mortgage Professionals and was invited to become a member of the High Trust Elite Coaching Program, for which he leads discussions on business development, recruiting, market share growth, cultivating high performance sales teams, elevating the customer experience and business strategy.
