loanDepot’s Toy Eng Named Top Producer in State of New York Mortgage Agency’s Hall of Fame for Second Consecutive Year

IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--loanDepot, Inc. ("LDI" or "Company") (NYSE: LDI) has announced that for the second consecutive year, In-Market Retail Loan Consultant Toy Eng's dedication to her customers has earned her the top spot in the State of New York Mortgage Agency’s (SONYMA) Hall of Fame. The list recognizes loan officers who support the agency’s mission of serving first-time homebuyers.

SONYMA provides educational resources and access to affordable homeownership by removing many of the hurdles faced by first-time homebuyers. The agency offers low-interest mortgage loans to help qualified buyers purchase their first home, along with down payment assistance programs and specialized ‘add-ons’ to support their unique needs.

“I’ve made it my personal mission to help families achieve sustainable homeownership by offering guidance and support to those who need it most,” Eng said. “I'm so honored to receive this recognition for a second year, and knowing that I’m making a positive impact in underserved communities across my home state of New York makes it even more rewarding.”

Eng has dedicated her 16-year career as a loan consultant to empowering first-time homebuyers and advocating for sustainable homeownership. She's driven to guide aspiring homeowners toward stable homeownership, investing time in educating and counseling. She ensures her customers understand the intricacies of the homebuying process and homeownership journey, including budgeting and financial planning. Eng also actively seeks downpayment assistance and grant programs for loanDepot customers, advancing the Company’s efforts to support underserved communities.

“Toy’s dedication to helping families realize their dream of homeownership is truly inspiring,” said loanDepot Executive Vice President John Bianchi. “She always goes above and beyond, and we’re proud to celebrate her well-deserved recognition!”

Eng's commitment extends beyond her professional duties–she volunteers for organizations focused on supporting affordable housing, including Community Housing Innovations and Yonkers Affordable Housing–where she generously offers her expertise to support underserved homebuyers.

Having first been honored by SONYMA at No. 15 in 2016, Eng's rise through the agency’s Hall of Fame has steadily advanced each year, reaching the No. 2 spot in 2022 and No. 1 for the first time in 2023.
