History
The history of the UFirst Alliance™ and United First Financial™ begins nearly a decade ago, when Skyler Witman and John Washenko launched Accelerated Equity & Development, a mortgage company dedicated to building a reputation based on competitive rates and the best terms in the market.
Skyler and John began to notice the overwhelming mountain of debt their clients were accumulating. As loan officers, they could offer clients little help to pull themselves out of the mire of financial debt.
This desire to help began years of research that would eventually launch a powerful new tool, the Money Merge Account™ program, revolutionary in its ability to help individuals and families reduce debt and build wealth.
Initially, Accelerated Equity offered their clients mortgage debt reduction programs such as a bi-weekly payment plan to help minimize debt, but soon realized clients needed something more to meet their financial needs. In 2002, they developed a method to pay down mortgages in record time with little to no change in lifestyle, while paying off debt and saving hundreds of thousands of dollars in interest. Skyler and John then built a top-notch IT division and contracted an aeronautical engineer to begin creating the mathematical algorithms and system programming that would become the very heart of the Money Merge Account program.
Several more years and millions of dollars were invested in research and development before a 1-year market test release rolled out in Denver, Colorado. To the pride and astonishment of the founders, homeowners from the initial test market who signed up for the Money Merge Account program were achieving results even better than predicted.
Homeowners with a traditional 30-year mortgage were on track to become mortgage free after only 8 to 11 years, all while paying off other debt in the process with a rate of 20% better savings and payoff time than was initially predicted. To facilitate the growing marketing needs of the Money Merge Account program, Skyler and John brought on colleagues Jonathan E. Bonnette, Matt Lovelady, and Don Jorgensen, and created United First Financial. These colleagues brought with them many years of expertise in the mortgage and financial arena.
Today, the Money Merge Account program has become so successful that the company has expanded across the U.S. and into parts of Canada, helping thousands of homeowners get on the fast track to financial freedom. Even more powerfully, the program now allows clients--homeowners or not--to target total debt elimination or save for future financial goals. The demand for the program is exploding, and the company continues to bring on board talented financial agents to help clients achieve their financial goals.
UFirst Alliance continues to expand the financial opportunities provided by UFirst. Clients can take advantage the powerful savings vehicles available in the insurance arena, while agents can build a business backed by a proven financial leader.
