Discovering the Power of Culture at Fairway ??
We recently heard an inspiring story from a colleague with a unique career journey—30 years, 26 companies, and countless industries. Along the way, they encountered many organizations with core values written on the walls, but rarely saw those values lived authentically every day... until they came to Fairway Independent Mortgage Corporation.
Here’s what they shared:
"Of the hundreds of companies I've seen over more than three decades, Fairway is the only company where every single person lives and breathes the defined culture and values every day. Regardless of role, every team member aspires to live up to what’s written on the walls."
One of their favorite examples? Speed to Respond.
"Email usually feels like a 24-hour waiting game. But at Fairway, responses come in seconds—minutes at most—starting from the very top. I thought I was responsive, but I had to up my game to keep pace!"
They also shared how Fairway’s culture has been a guiding force through the toughest times:
"Crisis is equal parts danger and opportunity. Fairway’s culture carried us through the last few difficult years—shining brighter when things got hard. And that’s what truly sets us apart."
This story reminded us why Fairway isn’t just the best mortgage company—it’s the best company, period. ??
