Matthew Sauer

Matt Sauer has been in the mortgage industry for over twenty years. He moved to San Diego after he graduated from State University of New York in 2000 and has been here, loving the area, ever since. He began his career in the industry soon after his move to San Diego when he went to work for Washington Mutual Bank (now Chase Bank). After working for a direct lender, and eventually a mortgage broker, he decided to become a broker himself in 2007. After being in the industry for some time, he realized that he wanted to make a difference not only within the culture of the industry, but also by using the industry to impact the world around us. He has since made the commitment to give 10% of the company’s gross profits to meeting the needs of the poor and needy.
Matt is most passionate about his faith, helping others, and truly making a difference in people’s lives. He has been on mission trips to South Korea, southern Mexico, Israel, Peru, Kenya, Uganda, S. Sudan and done tsunami relief work in Japan. Over the past seven years, he has served in missional and leadership roles at his local church. He plays ice hockey, and enjoys the beautiful outdoors of San Diego every chance he gets, especially when he can hike and run Torrey Pines State Reserve.
