Reston, Virginia-based mortgage software company RETR announced this week that it has hired two new senior leaders to guide the company’s growth efforts.
Heidi Iverson is the company’s new vice president of growth and Anthony Savala is the new vice president of sales. Both are joining the firm effective April 7, RETR co-founder and CEO Steven Wynands said.
“We feel so lucky that Heidi and Anthony chose to join our team,“ Wynands said. “Each brings not only a wealth of experience, but also the kind of character, creativity, passion, and empathy that inspires those around them. We’re excited for the impact they’ll have on our company as well as the customers we serve.“
Iverson has 20-plus years of experience across various industries. Before joining RETR, she founded PlacedE, a boutique mortgage recruiting and coaching firm. Prior to that, she served in senior leadership roles at Mobility Market Intelligence (MMI), Guild Mortgage, ClosingMark Home Loans, and Castle & Cooke Mortgage.
“I chose to join RETR as VP of Growth because I’ve experienced firsthand how powerful having actionable data can be for driving growth and efficiency,“ Iverson said in a statement. “RETR’s platform takes this further — it gives mortgage professionals clear, practical insights to quickly spot opportunities and grow strategically. The technology is impressive, and I’m proud to join such a talented team that’s making a real difference.”
Savala has spent more than 15 years in the mortgage technology sector. He served for the past two years as vice president of sales at TRUE. Before that, he worked in business development leadership roles at Experience.com and Reggora, and he was an account director for Sales Boomerang (now known as TrustEngine).
“I’ve always focused on impact and helping enterprises use innovative technologies to stay ahead of the curve,“ he said in a statement. “Now at RETR, I’m bringing that track record of execution, experience and sales leadership to help originators harness the power of data to grow, compete, and win more than ever before.“
RETR was founded in 2022 by Wynands and chief technology officer Steven Mincemoyer. It offers a high-quality software-as-a-service platform designed to help loan officers and mortgage companies build better relationships. The firm now has 11 employees and reported year-over-year revenue growth of 455% at the end of March.
