Freedom Mortgage Named in the 2023 Inc. 5000 List

Boca Raton, FL – August 15, 2023 – Freedom Mortgage, one of the largest full-service, independent mortgage companies and a top Veterans Administration (VA) and Federal Housing Administration (FHA) lender in the U.S., was named to the Inc. 5000 list of America’s fastest-growing private companies by Inc. Magazine—for the ninth time.

Freedom Mortgage first made the Inc. 5000 list in 2013 and continued for six straight years in a row, earning a spot in the Inc. 5000 Hall of Fame in 2018. Today, the company has made it onto the Inc. 5000 Honor Roll as a nine-time honoree. This prestigious ranking provides a data-driven look at the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent, entrepreneurial businesses. Facebook, Chobani, Under Armour, Microsoft, Patagonia, and many other household name brands gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.

"I’m so proud Freedom Mortgage is back on the Inc. 5000 list," said Stanley C. Middleman, founder, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Freedom Mortgage. "Despite the challenges in the housing industry and rising interest rates, we were able to pivot and find opportunities for growth. We could not serve our nearly two million customers without the resilience and dedication of the Freedom Mortgage team. We will continue to foster homeownership for all consumers across America. Congratulations to all the companies on the list."

Scott Omelianuk, Inc. editor-in-chief, said, "Running a business has only gotten harder since the end of the pandemic. To make the Inc. 5000—with the fast growth that requires—is truly an accomplishment. Inc. is thrilled to honor the companies that are building our future."
