VVH-TV Profile: Melissa Cohn of Manhattan Mortgage

Established in 1985, Manhattan Mortgage's loan originations-over $3.5 billion last year-again earned the company recognition as the #1 residential mortgage brokerage in metropolitan New York.
Melissa Cohn, owner and President, who founded the company nineteen years ago and built it into a multi-billion dollar enterprise, was named Top Mortgage Originator for the 10th year in a row by the editors of "Mortgage Originator Magazine". She is also the recipient of the Ernst & Young 2003 Entrepreneur of the Year Award in the Financial Services category in the New York Metro Area. "My business approach", explains Melissa, "has been to create a formula and duplicate it from branch to branch, making appropriate revisions to each region. As long as you remember that you're only as good as your last mortgage and treat each client as your most important, the formula will work anywhere".

The strategy is working successfully in Manhattan Mortgage's 10 offices: eight in New York (Manhattan, Purchase, Croton-on-Hudson, Jericho, Westhampton, Bridgehampton, East Hampton and Amagansett) an office in Upper Montclair, NJ and one in Palm Beach, FL.

Manhattan Mortgage has developed strong relationships with over 150 lenders and, because of the high volume of loans originated on a daily basis, the company's team of more than 200 financing professionals is able to negotiate the most competitive terms in the industry.
