Rate hires Ryan Randle to expand Denver presence

Rate announced on Tuesday that mortgage originator Ryan Randle has joined the company as it continues to expand its presence in the Denver market.

Randle brings more than 13 years of mortgage lending experience to the company after spending his career at U.S. Bank. According to the HousingWire Mortgage Rankings, Randle produced a total volume of nearly $30 million in 2025 with an average loan size of $712,131.

In a statement, Randle said he joined Rate because he was seeking an environment that would help him continue growing as a loan originator.

“I wasn’t looking to make a change simply for the sake of making one,” Randle said. “I wanted to be in an environment that would challenge me to become an even better originator. Rate has assembled some of the best loan officers in the country, and being surrounded by that level of talent gives me the opportunity to continue growing, learning and taking my business to the next level.”

Todd Heaton, executive vice president and Western U.S. divisional manager at Rate, said Randle’s experience and production record made him a strong addition to the company’s sales team.

“Ryan has built an outstanding reputation over more than a decade by consistently delivering for his clients and referral partners,” Heaton said in a statement. “The fact that someone with Ryan’s track record chose Rate speaks volumes about the culture we’ve built.

“The best originators want to work alongside other top performers, and that’s exactly what continues to set Rate apart. We’re thrilled to welcome Ryan to the team and excited to see what he’ll accomplish.”

Rate said the hire is part of its strategy to grow in key markets by recruiting experienced mortgage professionals.
