Brookfield, WI (September 19, 2005) – Amerihome Mortgage Company, LLC announced today the expansion into the Florida market. The Naples, Florida branch will be lead by Kurt P. Holm, originally of Waukesha, Wisconsin.

Holm has over twenty years experience in the Florida market in real estate, mortgage banking, and title services. Mr. Holm was top producing loan officer for several years at IDL Mortgage and opened two very successful branches in Florida for Norwest Mortgage, which was acquired by Wells Fargo, before forming his own real estate firm in 1996.

Nicholas J. DelTorto, President and CEO of Amerihome Mortgage said, "by adding Kurt to our team and expanding into Florida, we are reaching another fast-growing market. We anticipate that this market will continue to expand, based on demographics and the growing number of retirees migrating to Florida from areas near our current operations in New England and the Midwest. Kurt's relationships here in the Midwest and his years of experience in Florida will provide considerable opportunity for us to provide excellent service to those looking to purchase second homes or retirement properties in the Naples and surrounding area."

Holm attended University of Wisconsin at Madison to pursue a degree in History. He lettered for two years in football for the Wisconsin Badgers and was signed as a free agent by the Green Bay Packers in 1979. He is active in the NFL alumni association and the athletics alumni association of the University of Wisconsin.
