Brian Permutt

Brian Permutt is the President of ResiCentral, a wholesale and non-delegated correspondent mortgage lender focused on delivering fast, consistent, and technology-driven lending solutions to broker partners. With deep roots in the wholesale mortgage space dating back to the early 2000s, Brian brings a hands-on understanding of both market cycles and what brokers actually need to close deals and grow their business.

Since launching ResiCentral in 2021, Brian has built a culture centered on operational excellence and broker-first service. He's prioritized smart automation and technology integration that minimize bottlenecks, reduce costs, and allow the team to deliver faster decisions without sacrificing accuracy or personal service.

Brian built ResiCentral around a "Speed with a Smile" philosophy, combining fast execution with a strong service mindset. He believes that lowering the cost to originate is the fastest way to deliver consistent, competitive pricing to broker partners and ultimately to borrowers. That's why he's passionate about leveraging technology to improve accuracy, reduce costs across operations, and empower mortgage brokers with better tools and faster decision-making. He was recently featured on HousingWire's Leading Lenders series, where he discussed how lenders can scale intelligently in today's market.

Brian brings that experience directly to brokers at the UAMP Mortgage Expo in Utah, with his session Built to Close: Running a Mortgage Business That Doesn't Fold When the Market Does.
