American Pacific Mortgage announces
Ned Payant as President

Roseville, CA — October 1, 2020American Pacific Mortgage (APM) announced on a recent all-hands meeting that it has appointed Ned Payant as the president of the company. Payant will be responsible for overseeing the company's production, operations and fulfillment, and recruiting sides of the business.

No Accident

Bill Lowman, CEO (and former President) of APM made the announcement to the group in attendance. “As the company has grown and the challenges facing mortgage companies grow more complex, it became clear the organization needed to hire a President that could help steer the ship hand in hand with the rest of the Leadership Team.  It’s no accident that Ned is only the third President in the history of APM. We’ve had amazing success with our organizational structure and weren’t willing to make a change at the helm for just any candidate. In the end, the primary reason for promoting Ned Payant to President is quite simply….Ned Payant. He has been a star member of the executive leadership team, and we strongly feel this new structure best serves the organization and positions American Pacific Mortgage for the future and all the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead.”
