Meet Abbey Tebben, Area Manager / Loan Officer

With over 20 years of experience in the financial services sector, specializing in mortgage origination and process improvement, I’ve had the privilege of leading teams to success by blending industry expertise with strategic enhancements. By focusing on business growth and high-performance team-building, I’ve helped both myself and countless loan officers thrive in this competitive industry.

Beyond my mortgage leadership, I’m also an adjunct professor and curriculum developer with over a decade of experience teaching communication, mathematics, and business at the university level. This background enriches my approach to coaching and education, ensuring that each team member receives the tailored support they need to excel.

My philosophy centers around clear, open communication and a focus on strengths and growth opportunities. Whether working with borrowers, referral partners, or leadership teams, I’m committed to promoting equity, offering personalized collaboration, and guiding teams through change and project management.

In my recent work, I’ve developed business intelligence tools that empower loan officers and operations partners, along with innovative strategies for recruiting and coaching that are both transparent and impactful.

When I’m not helping teams grow, you’ll find me spending time with my family, cheering on my kids at the softball field and shooting range, cuddling my grandbabies, traveling, fishing, playing cards with my husband, or discovering new local adventures.

Outside the C-Suite: Why Summit?

Michael Brewbaker - Branch Manager on his detour away from Summit

"Seeing what I saw in our detour away from Summit, a lot of dysfunction, a lot of disconnection. Summit is very efficient, very dialed in. I really didn't know that until I saw other companies."

Kevin Kappler - Northeast Regional Manager

"Summit has been a very proven entity for us, we value the operations, we value the underwriting consistency...Not every company is as transparent as Summit is."

Matt Redding - Southwest Regional Manager

"When you find the right people to work with everything about your business falls in place."

Bill Zimmerman - Western Regional Manager on 10k Seller's Guarantee

"Summit decided to put their money where their mouth is...this will actually double their (buyer's) likelihood to get their offer accepted."

Inconvenient Truths About Recruiting

"Abbey is like your best friend, Auntie, or cousin that you could go to. She had most of the answers, but when she didn't, she searched until she did. To be 100% transparent, I was going through a bitter divorce, battling depression, and facing financial difficulties when we worked together. She became a marriage counselor, therapist, and financial advisor. None of these were in her job description, but she did it anyway. Any company will be better with her inside their walls.”

Barry J., Loan Officer, IL
“I have been a coworker to Abbey Tebben for many years. I am a big advocate of Abbey's for many reasons. She is dedicated, intelligent, productive, kind, creative in her problem solving and resourceful. I would hire Abbey for any job because I know she would accomplish it fast, complete and with passion. Anyone that gets the opportunity to work with Abbey would be lucky.”

Lynn A., Loan Officer, MN
“Abbey is one of my favorite co-workers I have ever worked with. She just so happened to to be my operations manager and saved many of my deals for me. She knows how to get things done and works well with everyone. I miss working with you Abbey!”

Preston S., Loan Officer, MN
“Abbey Tebben is the best. I have known her for several years. She is hard working, loyal and dedicated to her craft. Truly knowledgeable about the insides and outsides of the mortgage business she is a true asset to her clients, her industry and her company.”

Sean P., Loan Officer, IL
“Abbey is an incredible leader. She does what she says she is going to do and leads by example, which is a rare quality in today’s mortgage industry. She is very intentional about listening to her loan officers and implementing their feedback inside of her organization. The mortgage industry needs more Abbeys.”

Phil D., Loan Officer, IA
“Abbey is one of the most competent and incredibly dedicated professionals I've ever met, she is passionate and caring and shows empathy to all. I have nothing but positive things to say about Abbey and I believe she is a blessing to anyone who is lucky enough to cross her path.”
