  "summary": "As of 2026-10-26, LenDb lists 36 loan officers licensed in or based in Tennessee whose lender pages say they speak Spanish. The top-ranked are Tim Simko (Loan Factory), Andi Bernal (Churchill Mortgage, Brentwood) and Jonathan Salinas (CrossCountry Mortgage, Memphis). Ranking is lender-neutral: a license in TN, branch location, experience and profile completeness. Nobody pays for placement. Languages come only from loan officers' own lender pages, and most lender pages do not list languages. A loan officer missing from this list may still speak it: not listed means not stated, not that they do not speak it.",
