Ohio-based Union Home Mortgage (UHM) on Wednesday announced a partnership with ARIVE, a lending software platform built specifically for independent mortgage professionals.
With ARIVE, UHM brokers will be able to originate from anywhere, issue preapprovals, manage leads, access products and pricing, and more. The partnership will also connect UHM to a network of users and loan officers who source mortgage offers from multiple wholesale lenders.
“We are so excited to be part of the ARIVE platform,” Bill Cosgrove, CEO of UHM, said in a statement. “Our commitment to our broker partners is important to us, and partnering with the ARIVE platform will take Union Home to the next level in providing an all-in-one, world-class experience.”
Brokers approved by UHM will immediately be able to access products and pricing within the ARIVE platform.
“ARIVE has seen explosive growth in the last two years, and Union Home’s TPO Channel has as well,” said Matt Langley, vice president of TPO business development at UHM.
“Working with ARIVE is a great opportunity for us to share our passion with the most enthusiastic group of tech users in the mortgage space. Union Home’s personal service is a fantastic match with ARIVE’s all-in-one cutting-edge technology.”
ARIVE CEO Harish Tejwani also expressed excitement about the partnership.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Union Home Mortgage to the ARIVE platform. Their commitment to delivering fast, efficient closings and direct access to underwriters aligns perfectly with our mission to empower independent originators,” Tejwani said.
“This partnership provides even more options to brokers through a diverse set of loan products and strong operational support. In addition to their impressive offerings, Union Home Mortgage brings a values-driven culture and a strong focus on professional development that enhances our growing network.”
UHM joins the ARIVE platform just a month shy of Rocket Pro‘s announced integration. ARIVE, which has 4,300 mortgage brokerage firms on the platform and works with 20-plus lenders, is owned by Wizni Inc., a private software development firm founded by Tejwani that acquired the platform in late 2020.
According to a statement on ARIVE’s website, Tejwani clarified that neither United Wholesale Mortgage, the Association of Independent Mortgage Experts (AIME), UMortgage, nor its CEO Anthony Casa — who originally founded ARIVE in 2018 — hold any ownership stake in Wizni or ARIVE.
Like ARIVE, UHM is a fast-growing company that most recently acquired Nations Reliable Lending, aka NRL Mortgage, in March 2025.
That acquisition follows UHM’s purchase of Amerifirst Home Mortgage about two years earlier, and it marks a continued push by the company to actively recruit high-performing loan officers.
