Now in its 12th year, HousingWire’s Vanguards award honors accomplished leaders across mortgage, real estate, and homebuilding who have demonstrated a lasting impact on their organizations and the industry at large. This year’s honorees are distinguished by their ability to turn complex market challenges into opportunities, lead consequential initiatives, and position their companies for long-term success. About Bob Tyson, 2026 HousingWire Vanguard As CEO of NFM Lending, Bob Tyson provides the steady, disciplined leadership behind the company’s ongoing evolution. He helps set strategy, define operating priorities, and evaluate new opportunities, always with a focus on long-term alignment and thoughtful execution. Tyson is known for a “measure twice, cut once” leadership style that emphasizes preparation, consistency, and trust. He is deeply involved in connecting teams, strengthening initiatives, and quietly solving problems across the organization, even when others are the ones in the spotlight. By consistently elevating employees and fellow executives and giving them public credit, he builds confidence, ownership, and stronger leaders at every level. Tyson’s people-first, collaboration-driven approach has made him a stabilizing force at NFM Lending. His ability to pair careful decision-making with a commitment to the team lays the foundation for the company to innovate, pursue new opportunities, and grow sustainably. About Greg Sher, 2026 HousingWire Vanguard Greg Sher is a transformative mortgage leader whose 25 + year career as a builder, innovator, and connector has reshaped how the industry collaborates and expands access to homeownership. As Managing Director and head of NFM Business Development, he is responsible for most new hires. He plays a central role in shaping NFM’s growth, culture, and talent strategy, positioning the company as a destination for top producers and forward‑thinking professionals. This is the third straight year Sher has been named a Vanguard. Beyond his day-to-day role, Sher has created a powerful ecosystem of platforms and initiatives—including the #allofus movement, NFM TV, his One-on-One podcast and the Creator Collective—that unite competitors, amplify underrepresented voices (especially women) and drive financial literacy for the next generation of homebuyers. With more than 40,000 LinkedIn followers and nearly 5 million impressions in the past year, he leverages his influence to champion independent mortgage banks, spotlight inclusive leadership, and inspire the industry to focus collectively on serving the underserved. This combination of strategic growth leadership, industry advocacy, and impact-driven content makes him an ideal HousingWire Vanguard. “Being named a HousingWire Vanguard is a reflection of the incredible people who make up NFM Lending,” said Tyson. “Our success comes from disciplined decision‑making, a deep respect for our employees and partners, and a shared commitment to doing what’s right for our customers over the long term. I’m proud of how our team continues to innovate while staying grounded in preparation, consistency, and trust.” “I’m honored to be recognized as a HousingWire Vanguard, but I see this as recognition of the many voices and leaders who are working together to move our industry forward,” said Sher. “Through initiatives like #allofus, NFM TV and the Creator Collective, we’re proving that when we collaborate, elevate underrepresented voices and focus on financial literacy, we can expand access to homeownership in a meaningful way. I’m excited to keep building platforms that unite our industry and serve the next generation of homebuyers.” With Tyson and Sher in key leadership roles, NFM Lending has reinforced its position as a collaborative, innovative, and consumer-focused independent mortgage bank.
