Robert Carter, CEO
Bob joined the mortgage industry in the late 1980s, working as a loan officer and calling on realtors and builders for referrals. In 1992, he and his wife Diana opened Summit Mortgage. They wanted to run a mortgage company from the loan officer’s point of view. The idea worked, and as Summit has grown, Bob and Diana haven’t lost that perspective. Besides minding the store, Bob serves actively on the board of the State Mortgage Banker Association. You may also see him on the slopes, the golf course, or at the throttle of his Harley-Davidson. |
