Chairman & Co-Owner | Mortgage Industry Leader | Serial Entrepreneur

Wesam Hijazin—known to many as Sam—is a self-made entrepreneur and industry veteran who turned a humble beginning into a multi-million dollar mortgage empire. As Chairman, President, and Co-Owner of E Mortgage Capital, he leads one of the most dynamic and rapidly growing lending firms in the country, known for its innovation, culture, and relentless drive.

Wesam’s story begins as the son of hardworking immigrants who instilled in him a deep respect for grit, education, and financial literacy. After earning a degree in engineering with a minor in finance from California State University, Fullerton, he started his career in corporate America before betting on himself and diving headfirst into the world of mortgage banking.

That leap of faith led him to launch multiple successful ventures—including Homepath Lending—before co-founding E Mortgage Capital. Through his unique blend of technical expertise and leadership savvy, Wesam has helped build and mentor high-performance teams, scale national operations, and shape the future of residential lending.

Based in Southern California, Wesam is passionate about building wealth through real estate, empowering entrepreneurs, and redefining what success looks like for the next generation. His journey is proof that if you stay hungry, humble, and fearless, anything is possible.
