About Scott

Scott Griffin has a passion and talent for helping individuals become homeowners, rather than mortgage holders, and brings 25 years of expertise in real estate to bear for clients of the Scott Griffin Financial brokerage. 

Scott began his career in 1986 as a residential property specialist concentrated in leasing and managing large luxury apartment communities for real estate investment management firms such as Kennedy Wilson, Heitman and JMB Properties. Soon after, Scott moved on to become a mortgage loan agent and was quickly promoted to branch management of Peachtree Financial. 

In 2003 Scott opened his namesake brokerage, eventually expanding with offices in San Diego and Palm Springs and a specialty in 'A' Paper Jumbo Loans for clients either self-employed or in the entertainment industry. Scott has funded more than $831 Million in purchase and refinance home loans during the past eight years. 

Scott is one of a few selected lenders who are licensed to represent the All-in-One loan after having undergone a rigorous approval process with CMG Mortgage. He is a licensed Real Estate Broker in California and holds Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System and Registry (NMLS), Federal Housing Administration (FHA) and Certified Mortgage Planning Specialist (CMPS) certifications. He is recognized as an industry leader by SBMC Mortgage Bank, having won Top Producer nationally in 2005 and 2006. 

In March of 2012 Scott was invited to Washington D.C. to speak with Congress, Both the House and Senate, regarding housing and lending reform. Three of his speaking points on reform have now been made into laws, which benefit consumers. Also, Scott has held a position on the executive board since 2012, for the California Association of Mortgage Professionals, for the city of Los Angeles, serving as the Government of Affairs for the real estate lending industry.

 

In 2016/2017 Scott will be the President for the State of California representing the lending industry through the association.
