DataJoe Research is a software and research company specializing in data collection and verification, and conducts various nominations and research campaigns across the United States on behalf of publishers. To create the “top mortgage professionals” list, DataJoe Research facilitated an online peer-voting process. DataJoe also conducted extensive media analysis to factor in community perception and achievements to collect additional data for scoring. After collecting nominations and factoring additional information from the media analysis, DataJoe checked and confirmed that each published winner had a current, active license status with the state regulatory board. If we were not able to find evidence of a mortgage professional’s current, active registration with the state regulatory board, that mortgage professional was excluded from the list. Finally, DataJoe presented the tallied result to the magazine for its final review and adjustments. We recognize that there are many good mortgage professionals who are not shown in this representative list. This is only a sampling of the huge array of talented professionals within the region. Inclusion in the list is based on the opinions of responding mortgage professionals in the region and the results of our research campaign. We take time and energy to ensure fair voting, although we understand that the results of this survey nomination are not an objective metric. We certainly do not discount the fact that many, many good and effective mortgage professionals may not appear on the list. DataJoe uses best practices and exercises great care in assembling content for this list.  DataJoe does not warrant that the data contained within the list are complete or accurate. DataJoe does not assume, and hereby disclaims, any liability to any person for any loss or damage caused by errors or omissions herein whether such errors or omissions result from negligence, accident, or any other cause. All rights reserved. No commercial use of the information in this list may be made without written permission from DataJoe. Questions? For research/methodology questions, contact the research team at surveys@datajoe.com.
