Mortgage industry veteran Yale Wolf is known for getting things done. 

“They call me the ‘fixer,’” Wolf says. “If a deal is going sideways and they need some assistance getting the deal to the finish line, they reach out to me.”

With nearly two decades of experience in the mortgage lending industry, Wolf says he treats his clients like family. Though his career began on Wall Street, he’d always had an interest in real estate and the idea of finding a way to help people achieve the goal of homeownership. Essentially, he wanted to help people.

Wolf made the switch to mortgage lending 19 years ago, although his experience in the finance world taught him to be aggressive, assertive and thorough on behalf of his clients. “It molded me in the way I conduct business,” he says. “Client first.”

Wolf has ranked in Guaranteed Rate’s President’s Club for the past five years and is recognized as a top lender by Banker and Tradesman. Within the past year, he opened and built a branch with a team of 10 loan officers and a processing team. While he’s the team lead, he admits that he learns from the talented loan officers on his team every day. 

Teamwork is a critical component of any lender’s success, according to Wolf. “Learning and listening to other top producers helps me stay on top of my game and be able to give the best service,” he says. “Being a team player helps for a successful transaction.”
