We made the list! 

ASTAR Home Capital is now ranked on the Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing companies in the United States.

Recently, Inc. Magazine published its prestigious annual Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing US companies. ASTAR Home Capital is ranked #390 among the nation’s fastest-growing companies, #31 in the financial services industry, #5 in the entire mortgage industry, and the #1 fastest-growing company in the financial industry within New York!

The list represents a one-of-a-kind look at the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment — independent businesses. 

By making the list, ASTAR Home Capital is in good company. Global companies, such as Facebook, Chobani, Under Armour, Microsoft, Patagonia, and many other well-known brands gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc.. 5000.

“It’s our honor and privilege to be among the five thousand fastest-growing companies in America,” said ASTAR Chief Executive Officer, Shmiel Stern. 

“That we have been able to stay strong and continue to grow even during these uncertain times and rising interest rates, I believe, is a true testament to the quality of service we provide our clients. 

“Thank you to all our outstanding brokers, processors, and all of our dedicated employees for their hard work. We’d also like to thank our loyal clients for trusting us to be their partners in finding optimal, tailor-made mortgage solutions.

“We’re just getting started! We’re looking forward to another tremendous year of growth and making our clients’ dreams of homeownership come true.”

What it Takes to Make the Inc. 5000

The companies on the 2022 Inc.. 5000 have not only been successful but have also

demonstrated resilience amid supply chain woes, labor shortages, the ongoing impact of

Covid-19, and in our case, rising mortgage rates. Among the top 500 on the list, the average median three-year revenue growth rate soared to 2,144 percent. Together, those companies added more than 68,394 jobs over the past three years.

Complete results of the Inc.. 5000, including company profiles and an interactive database that

can be sorted by industry, region, and other criteria, can be found at www.Inc..com/Inc.5000. The top 500 companies are featured in the September issue of Inc.. magazine, which will be

available on August 23rd. 

“The accomplishment of building one of the fastest-growing companies in the U.S., in light of

recent economic roadblocks, cannot be overstated,” said Scott Omelianuk, editor-in-chief of Inc..Magazine. “Inc.. is thrilled to honor the companies that have established themselves through innovation, hard work, and rising to the challenges of today.”

How does one get selected for the Inc.. 5000 list?

You might be wondering what it means to be on the Inc. 5000. How did we make the list and what is the selection process or criteria by which one is chosen for the Inc.. 5000? 

According to the Inc. 5000, companies on the 2022 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2018 to 2021. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2018. 

They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2021. (Since then, some on

the list may have gone public or been acquired.)
