TACOMA, WA / ACCESS Newswire / September 30, 2025 / CMG Home Loans, the retail arm of the well-capitalized and privately held mortgage lender, CMG Financial, announced today the opening of a new branch in Tacoma, WA. Leading the Tacoma Central location is Area Sales Manager, Per Moerkeseth (NMLS ID# 518869), a veteran mortgage professional with nearly three decades of experience serving home buyers in the Puget Sound region.

Moerkeseth began his career in 1998 through various roles at Bank of America, from Personal Banker to Banking Center Manager and later to Mortgage Branch Manager. He went on to serve as a Senior Loan Officer at Umpqua Bank and most recently as Branch Manager at HomeStreet Bank from 2014 to 2025. In addition to his lending experience, he has held leadership roles in the industry, serving as President of the Puget Sound Mortgage Lenders Association from 2010-2013 and acting as an Advisor/Investor for EG Business Metrics.

"My team and I are so thrilled to be at CMG Home Loans and opening up a Tacoma location," said Moerkeseth. "We searched companies to engage with and looked for culture, products, technology, and ways to best serve our customers and referral partners. CMG came out ahead in all categories. We are now all here officially, and the onboarding process has been absolutely incredible. From leadership to boots-on-the-ground teammates, we have been supported in all aspects. "

"I'm truly excited to be working with Per again," added Chad Jackson, Regional Sales Manager. "He has the leadership skills and experience we've been looking for to grow in the South Sound market. Even more importantly, he's a perfect fit for our culture and brings a trusted reputation that will strengthen our entire team."
