At Prosperity Home Mortgage, we take pride in the fact that many of our team members who explore new career opportunities eventually return to our organization. Not because things didn’t work out elsewhere, but because they recognize something special here — a culture, a community, and a level of support they want to be part of again.

Their stories, experiences, and reflections reveal what makes Prosperity a place people are proud to call home throughout their careers.

Six Returning Team Members

A Culture Rooted in Support, Not Competition

One of the strongest themes was the sense of genuine support from both leadership and teammates. At Prosperity, employees consistently feel they have people they can rely on — whether they’re solving a complex scenario or navigating a busy day.

Loan Officer Kelli Deuterman, who originally joined Prosperity in 1999 and grew alongside the company for years, shared:

“Leadership brought me back. I knew I could call anyone and get help — that mattered.”

Others echoed how refreshing it is to work with managers whose focus is on developing their team, not competing with them. That structure creates trust, collaboration, and stability — traits that define Prosperity’s culture.

Tools and Systems That Make Work Feel Seamless

In a fast-moving mortgage environment, having reliable technology and efficient processes is more than a convenience; it’s a competitive edge.

Returning team members repeatedly noted that Prosperity’s systems “just work,” and that rejoining the workflow feels natural, even after time away. The combination of strong operational support and robust sales tools — including resources like Mortgage Coach, Wowmi, and scenario-rich product options — makes it easier to serve both clients and real estate partners with confidence.

As Sara Asselin put it:

“It was easy to come back. The tools are a goldmine and make creating client-ready content simple — even bilingual materials.”

For Edwin Valesco, the difference was immediately noticeable:

“The support from operations and the systems here make a huge difference. Everything runs smoothly.”

Flexibility That’s Backed by Real Support

Remote work is common in the industry — but meaningful support in a remote environment is not.

Processor Dawn Ham values Prosperity’s flexibility, but even more so, the teamwork behind it.

“If I need help, I just reach out. Someone is always available.”

For Robin Luedtke, the ability to work remotely from both Minnesota and Florida — while still feeling connected — made her return especially rewarding.

“Even with new products to learn, I never felt isolated. The transition was smooth because the team was so supportive.”

A Company Where People Are Seen — and Remembered

Many returning team members explained that at Prosperity, they feel recognized for their contributions. The organization is large enough to offer national strength and resources, but small enough for people to truly know each other.

As Chris Smith shared:

“You don’t get lost here. It’s big enough to give you what you need, but small enough that people know you.”

For team members working closely with real estate partners, coming back also meant reconnecting with agents who remembered their professionalism and were glad to work with them again — a testament to the strong relationships Prosperity teams build.

“It Was Hard to Leave — and Easy to Come Back.”

Among all the reflections, one quote from Robin Luedtke captures what so many expressed:

“It was hard to leave — and it was easy to come back.”

That sentiment carries weight. It speaks to a workplace where relationships are genuine, where leadership invests in people, and where culture isn’t just stated — it’s experienced.

Prosperity Home Mortgage: A Place Worth Returning To

What brings mortgage professionals back to Prosperity?

  • A collaborative, people-focused culture
  • Leadership that listens and lifts others up
  • Technology and tools that truly empower
  • Flexibility that supports real life
  • A workplace where individuals are appreciated and remembered

These are more than features — they are part of Prosperity’s identity.

Employees return not because they regret leaving, but because they recognize the value of working with a company that shares their commitment to integrity, service, and growth.

In the end, the most compelling proof of Prosperity’s culture is simple:

When people leave, they often choose to come home.
