Formerly Corporate Investors Mortgage Group, CIMG Residential Mortgage is the premier independently owned and operated Mortgage Banker in the Triangle, offering services throughout North and South Carolina. 

In the past 25 years we’ve grown from a staff of three to a team of 50. From one tiny office to four North Carolina branches in Chapel Hill, Raleigh, Durham, and Morehead City. 

In contrast to faceless corporations, we offer a hyper local model. All approvals occur in our offices. We loan our own money. And we stay connected with our clients throughout the process. In short, we humanize the lending experience.

It's something we call “lending on a first-name basis.”

This model gives us the flexibility to offer our customers a variety of loan programs at competitive rates. And by controlling everything from appraisal and processing to underwriting to closing and funding, we ensure that your loan proceeds quickly and efficiently.
