Hall Underwriting and Consulting is a risk analysis firm providing operational solutions, services, and products to the mortgage and consumer finance industry. The company was established in 1989 by Andrew J. Hall for the purpose of providing quality mortgage loan file due diligence for Wall Street firms, banks, and other investors that were purchasing loans from the Resolution Trust Corporation (RTC). Since that time Hall Underwriting has grown and evolved, expanding it's service offerings from basic residential due diligence, by adding multiple levels of mortgage loan analysis along with IT and Operational Solution Services. Hall Underwriting’s client list includes investment banks, mortgage lenders, institutional investors, government agencies, credit unions, and mortgage insurance companies. The products and services offered by Hall Underwriting are customizable and can be tailored to suit our clients’ individual needs.

In 2009 Hall Underwriting lost a visionary and its founder, Andy Hall, to cancer. Throughout his 35 year career in the mortgage and consumer finance industry Andy provided his customers with unparalleled quality and customer service. He was known for “telling it like it is” when it came to his loan analysis. Andy was respected and loved by those who worked for him and those he worked for. He knew that firms like ours need to adapt to the ever changing climate of our industry without ever losing focus of the prime objective, having the best qualified staff also capable of providing the highest level of customer service. He demanded these qualities of himself and those who worked for him. Andy’s philosophy lives on in the firm that proudly bears his name, Hall Underwriting and Consulting.
