OUR HISTORY
Premier Mortgage Resources (PMR) has proudly helped customers achieve the dream of homeownership since 2005. With a team of over 300 experienced loan officers, PMR is a privately held mortgage banker that underwrites loans directly to agency guidelines.
We offer a comprehensive range of mortgage solutions and are an approved seller/servicer for Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and Ginnie Mae. As a direct lender for FHA, VA, and USDA loans—and with access to a wide array of portfolio products—we’re equipped to serve diverse borrower needs. PMR also operates a full-service Reverse Mortgage Banking division and maintains relationships with numerous delegated Jumbo investors.
Licensed or pending licensure in all 50 states, PMR’s story began under the leadership of founders Greg Mirecki and Rich Forde. Originally part of a larger nationwide firm, they successfully led PMR for nearly a decade. Though the name was temporarily retired through a series of mergers and acquisitions, operations continued and key offices remained active until the company’s official relaunch in 2005.
In the years that followed, Idaho native Cory Swain joined as managing partner and spearheaded significant growth. Under his leadership, PMR achieved a 42% year-over-year growth rate in 2018, 23% in 2019, and nearly 60% in 2020—its largest annual increase to date. To date, the company continues its growth trajectory.
In 2021, Swain acquired the company outright and relocated its headquarters to Meridian, Idaho. On January 1, 2022, PMR transitioned into an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), making every employee a stakeholder in the company’s continued success.
