AMERIQUEST'S NICHE

Ameriquest has carved a dominant niche in what the industry calls "Retail Specialty Mortgages," also known as B/C or "subprime" loans. Individuals in this segment have less-than-perfect credit. Their problem could involve unanticipated expenses from medical or other emergencies, loss of a job or simple overspending.

Banks routinely turn down these individuals, even though the majority of them are responsible and hardworking. Finance companies may lend to them, but at very high rates. Ameriquest represents a compassionate middle ground where you, as an Ameriquest representative, can help these people regain their financial footing.

While other lenders may consider this type of lending too risky, we look at it as a good investment. In fact, the ever-increasing number of subprime borrowers has ensured our growth and profitability for over 20 years.

AMERIQUEST: A PROVEN TRACK RECORD AND IMPRESSIVE GROWTH

For more than a decade, our exclusive focus has been the speciality mortgage market. Over the last four years our growth has been particularly impressive.

  • We grew from 22,700 loans in 1997 to 41,300 loans in 2001
  • We increased our loan volume from $1.9 billion in 1997 to $5.3 billion in 2001.

As a privately held company, we currently rank No. 1 in the U.S. among Retail Specialty Lenders in the origination of first mortgage loans. Our goal is to continue to be the No. 1 Retail Specialty Mortgage Lender in the United States on a consistent basis.
