One of our favorite annual traditions is the Legends Lunch sponsored by the Houston Mortgage Bankers Association (HMBA). Last year’s event was canceled, and that made this year’s gathering even more special. Pictured at the lunch are (L-R): Joe Thompson, Prime Lending; Jose Pastrana, Legend Lending; Ryan Black; and Bill Dawley, Amegy Bank.

The evening prior, several members of our Houston team attended a festive HMBA Annual Holiday party, catching up with friends and industry peers from throughout the region. Seen in the second photo is our own Operations Manager Robin Lyons flanked by BMG’s José Paiz and Ivonne Dominguez, Intersearch Associates.
