Franklin American Mortgage Joins Wilkins & Associates Independent Family

Stroudsburg - Franklin American Mortgage Company (FAMC) will be working in conjunction with the Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Wilkins & Associates Independent Family of Home Buying Services.  This was coordinated through Dennis A. Mooney, Senior Vice President.

FAMC is a privately held mortgage banking firm located in Franklin, Tennessee.  FAMC is a full-service professional mortgage banker licensed to provide residential mortgages across the nation. 

Locally, in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania, FAMC is managed by William “Bill” Cullen, Mortgage Loan Originator/Branch Manager.  Cullen, who has lived and worked in the Pocono Mountains for the past 40 years, is devoted to providing top flight mortgage services for the buyers they handle.

Said Thomas R. Wilkins, CEO, “Bill Cullen and I have been friends for the past 35 years.  Professionally, we have known each other since my days running the commercial division at Coldwell Banker/Phyllis Rubin Real Estate.  What I mean to say is Bill has been making mortgages and been in the Pocono real estate industry over 25 years.”  Wilkins further said, “Joining forces at this particular juncture is a very positive experience for Bill and our Realtors.”

FAMC offers borrowers, broker and lenders the strength and security of a forward thinking national mortgage company dedicated to remaining an industry trend-setter.  FAMC truly values its relationship with each customer and mortgage professional they work with.  They are driven, as a company tradition of responsiveness and personalized service characteristics of a much smaller organization, while maintaining the corporate image of being a national lender.

Said William Cullen, Mortgage Loan Originator/Branch Manager, “Joining forces with the Better Homes and Gardens sales team is a huge plus for us.  While I have customers, clients and Realtors from all the Pocono brokers, this simply adds to our portfolio.  Wilkins plans on expanding throughout the Poconos as well as Pike County and Northern Lehigh and I want to be a part of that expansion.”

Said Mooney, “Our Independent Family now offers great mortgage servicing from 10 of the most prominent lenders in the Pocono Mountains along with Pennsylvania First Settlement Services and Global Home USA Warranty.  The professionalism that each and every one of our Agents offers to their buyers has been a proven winner for us in the past and will only continue to grow as we grow.”  Wilkins, with 60+ Salespersons now intends to grow their salesforce to over 100 licensed sales people within the next 6 to 10 months.
