When Drew Boland first started in mortgage lending, he didn’t even know what a mortgage was. He had just finished college when a family connection led him to an apprentice role at a boutique lender. “It seemed like a good opportunity to learn a business, get some professional experience for a few years and figure out what was next,” he says. Twenty-one years later, he’s still doing the work and still learning. “It teaches you so much about life: markets, investments, taxes, credit ratings, insurance and risk assessment,” he adds.

Boland works entirely by referral, with clients and agents who return because they trust his communication and follow-through. In 2023, he helped nearly 200 buyers close on homes during a year that was difficult for many. He also formed new working relationships with 12 real estate teams. That kind of trust, he says, is something he’s proud of.
