Jeff Bode | President and CEO |Click n' Close

Jeff is Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and President of Click n' Close, formerly known as Mid America Mortgage. Having been in mortgage banking since 1981, Bode founded and ran the original iteration of Mid America Mortgage in 1989, during which time he also became the first lender to develop an interface inside Calyx Point. In 2003, Bode sold Mid America to Aegis Mortgage and focused on developing Mortgage Machine, a proprietary loan origination system (LOS) and creating a tax lien business, which originated the highest amount of loans of all single-family tax lien companies in Texas in the first two years. He re-entered the mortgage market in 2007, and in 2010, he purchased Schmidt Mortgage Company and reorganized its operations to incorporate the loan production of another mortgage operating unit he managed prior to the acquisition, resulting in the re-emergence of Mid America Mortgage in December 2011. Mid America Mortgage was the first independent mortgage lender in the nation to implement electronic mortgage closings (eClosings) and electronic promissory notes (eNotes) throughout its retail, wholesale and correspondent divisions. In 2022, Mid America Mortgage sold the majority of its retail lending division and rebranded to Click n' Close. Under Bode's leadership, Click n' Close has become a pioneer in the digital mortgage space. Click n' Close is a direct-to-consumer, ultra-secure digital mortgage platform to get home buyers from application to closing within two weeks. With just a few clicks at closing, Click n' Close puts keys in the home buyer's hand in 15 minutes or less.
