Next month, Iowa Bankers Mortgage Corporation will celebrate the retirement of Deb Hansen, who has been a fixture at the company for 32 years.
As IBMC’s investor quality response manager, former underwriter and underwriting manager, nearly all of our lending partners have had some contact with Deb over the past 32 years; whether it was on individual files, in a training or in response to the review of a purchased loan. Below is a brief Q&A with Deb.
How have you made a difference with IBMC customers?
I hope I made a difference by offering advice and options on resolving issues with their challenging files. The goal of this position is to avoid repurchase of a file from the investor. It's very rewarding when a repurchase request is rescinded by the investor.
What will you miss most about your job?
I will miss the camaraderie with my co-workers and talking with the bankers that I’ve gotten to know so well over the years. IBMC’s relationship with bankers is so important and makes a huge difference in achieving the same goals.
What are your plans for retirement?
I’m hoping to take the time to read and spend more time with friends and family.
Do you have any words of wisdom for Katie Berry as she takes over this crucial role?
Katie has already made some positive changes to the position since she began working at IBMC on May 1. My advice to her is to continue evolving in this new role, adapting the duties of the position in a direction that works best for her. Finally, enjoy your time at IBMC. It’s a wonderful place to work!
