New York based Astoria Financial Corporation will outsource its mortgage loan servicing business to Dovenmuehle Mortgage Inc. of Schaumburg, Illinois beginning coming December. Astoria expects about $2 million of annual pretax savings beginning in 2006.
"George Engelke, Astoria's chief executive, said: "This action was driven entirely by economics ... The number of loans we service has decreased over the past several years, thereby lowering operating efficiency."
Dovenmuehle Mortgage was founded in 1844 and is the oldest mortgage banking company in the Midwest.
