In September of 1981, Western Capital Investments from Denver, Colorado purchased Unity Mortgage, a subsidiary of a dynamic Chicago-based thrift, Unity Savings. Unity Mortgage was merged with Western Capital’s mortgage subsidiary, First Capital Mortgage. Combined, the new entity became WestAmerica Mortgage Company. This was the foundation for the company’s national lending structure of today. As a result of the unstable interest rate market of the ‘80’s, Western Capital and it’s banking subsidiaries (Western Savings, et. al.) chose to pursue retail banking, rather than mortgage production or servicing, for their future growth plans. In turn, the parent organization presented the three principal officers of WestAmerica Mortgage with an opportunity to purchase the mortgage company. These gentlemen accepted the challenge and the mortgage-banking group became a privately held stand-alone company in 1989. With the vision of it’s owners, WestAmerica Mortgage (dba WestAm Mortgage in the state of California), has grown to become a full service lender, with offices located throughout the country. The company offers a wide range of loan programs, including First Time Home Buyer, FHA, VA, Conventional, Jumbo, niche / expanded criteria, commercial, reverse mortgages, seconds, home-equities, and construction lending alternatives.
