2024 Tech Trendsetter: Paul Akinmade

Paul Akinmade

Paul Akinmade, chief strategy officer at CMG Financial, is a true innovator, always seeking to solve industry challenges through cutting-edge technology. With a history of excellence, including being named a HousingWire 2020 Tech Trendsetter and 2023 Marketing Leader, his recent work has earned him even more recognition. Over the past year, Akinmade has spearheaded several major projects, including a de novo servicing platform, the groundbreaking POS opportunity pipeline (a 2024 Tech100 product), and the continued development of CMG’s proprietary List & Lock product.

Akinmade’s leadership has driven innovation that not only pushes his company forward but also challenges the broader mortgage industry to excel. The POS pipeline he helped create has revolutionized how loan officers operate in a high-rate environment. By merging past sales data with active deals, the platform provides actionable insights, helping originators identify and capitalize on new opportunities. This forward-thinking technology was a standout at the Digital Mortgage Conference, where Akinmade led CMG to success as the only lender showcasing tech.

Akinmade also played a pivotal role in enhancing the List & Lock™ product, which allows home sellers to offer discounted interest rates to attract buyers. In response to market trends, he introduced new features like Build & Lock for builders and List Now, Lock Later for sellers to lock in lower rates when the time is right. His contributions don’t stop at sales tools — Akinmade’s vision continues to drive innovation that benefits the entire housing market. His tech solutions are a testament to his ability to identify current industry needs and create groundbreaking products from scratch.
