SAN RAMON, Calif. -- Commerce Mortgage (www.commercemtg.com), a leading provider of home mortgage financing, continued its national expansion with the openings of six new branch offices in California, Arizona and Florida in 2014. Commerce Mortgage opened three new branch locations in California (one in Hanford, one in Fresno, and one in Walnut Creek), one new location in Arizona (Scottsdale), and two new locations in Florida (Aventura and Miami). With the opening of the new California and Arizona locations, Commerce Mortgage further strengthened its presence on the West Coast, increasing the total number of its West Coast branch offices to 20 (15 in California, 3 in Colorado, one in Arizona, and one in Nevada). The opening of the two new branch office locations in Florida is Commerce Mortgage’s first entry into the Florida market and gives the company a solid base in the Southeast from which it expects to grow. All of the new branch offices opened by Commerce Mortgage in 2014 will provide additional capacity for sales and support in the new locations to keep up with increased demand.

“Commerce Mortgage’s new branch locations will allow us to strengthen our coverage and leadership across the West Coast and now in Florida and in the Southeast,” said Mario De Tomasi, Chief Financial Officer for Commerce Mortgage. “Our goal is to continue to grow in our existing territories and expand into other states while remaining committed to maintaining our accessible and personable style service to clients. We are excited about the growth we are experiencing and the expansion represents a commitment to continue to build on the success of our team.”

In addition to the six new branch locations opened in 2014, Commerce Mortgage is planning to open a new location in Berkeley, CA sometime in 2015.
