CrossCountry Mortgage, the nation’s top-ranked retail mortgage lender, officially opened the doors to its newest office in unincorporated Duluth with a ribbon-cutting celebration held June 5 at 2675 Breckinridge Blvd. The event was hosted by the Gwinnett Chamber and Partnership Gwinnett, drawing an enthusiastic crowd of community leaders, elected officials, and local residents.

Recognized for the second consecutive year as the No. 1 retail mortgage lender by Scotsman Guide and Mortgage Executive Magazine, CrossCountry Mortgage (CCM) continues to expand its national footprint while deepening its local impact. The new Gwinnett office represents the company’s latest investment in helping families realize the dream of homeownership.
“At CrossCountry Mortgage, we’re committed to serving our communities and helping people achieve the dream of homeownership,” said Maui Parra, Branch Manager. “This new location allows us to deepen our support for the community and continue delivering the mortgage solutions and exceptional customer service we’re known for.”
A Strategic Move for Growth and Community Impact
The new branch, situated along the Breckinridge/I-85 corridor, reflects a strategic move by CCM to tap into Gwinnett County’s rapidly growing housing market and diverse population. Offering a full suite of mortgage services—including first-time homebuyer programs, refinancing, and home equity loans—the office is staffed by experienced local loan officers focused on personalized service.
Nicole Love Hendrickson, Chairwoman of the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, praised the company’s expansion and its alignment with the county’s housing and economic development goals.
“Gwinnett’s rapid population growth and thriving housing market make it more important than ever to have trusted partners in homeownership,” said Hendrickson. “CrossCountry Mortgage plays a vital role in helping families put down roots and build wealth in our community.”
Strengthening Gwinnett’s Financial Services Ecosystem
With more than 7,000 employees and 700+ branches nationwide, CrossCountry Mortgage brings national reach with a strong local presence. The new Duluth branch also bolsters Gwinnett’s growing reputation as a hub for financial services and innovation.
“The addition of CrossCountry Mortgage to Gwinnett adds momentum to our growing financial services sector,” said Kevin Carmichael, Senior Vice President of Economic Development at Partnership Gwinnett. “Their presence reinforces our region as a destination for top talent and forward-thinking businesses.”
As the economic development arm of the Gwinnett Chamber, Partnership Gwinnett plays a critical role in recruiting and supporting companies like CCM in five target industries: manufacturing, information and technology solutions, health sciences and services, supply chain, and professional services.
“This expansion supports our mission of driving economic prosperity in Gwinnett by attracting and growing companies that invest in our communities and create jobs,” Carmichael added.
