Fred Arnold is a community leader, speaker, coach and mortgage professional in the real estate and mortgage banking industry.

Mr. Arnold coaches realtors and mortgage professionals on life and sales excellence and often speaks to business and consumer groups on the economy, the state of the housing market and how to get the best investment when buying real estate. Fred has interviewed over 1,100 entrepreneurs, authors, and life experts through his TV show, ”Out of the Rough”, on SCVTV and radio show, “The Santa Clarita Business & Real Estate Show”, on AM 1220 KHTS.

Fred is also very involved in his community having served as the president of the California Association of Mortgage Brokers as well as the treasurer for the National Association of Mortgage Professionals.  Locally, Fred has served on numerous charitable organizations currently including Child & Family Center Board of Director, COC Foundation Board, SCV Disaster Coalition board and was previously the Chairman of the Santa Clarita Valley Chamber of Commerce and president of the OLPH School Board.

Perhaps what’s most impressive is Fred’s pursuit of life excellence.  Having completed over 32 Ironman competitions (5 full) over the past seven years has given Fred not only a unique perspective about life, but the commitment has allowed him to become more disciplined in everything he does.  Fred’s life goals include helping others achieve their goals and dreams in life, in addition to being an example for his four children Alex, Katie, Jack and Amy.
