Michael Fogarty
Senior Vice President, Commercial Lending

Mentored … and mentoring. That’s Mike Fogarty. Mike’s been a Lakesider since 2014 and is one of our senior commercial loan officers. And he’s quite a unique loan officer. Read on!

Mike knows how important it is for us to look out for one another. Mike was an Evans Scholar. For those who don’t know the Evans Scholar program, it’s quite an honor. Since 1930, the foundation has helped highly deserving young golf caddies with financial need go to college. There are rigorous requirements. Mike won a four-year scholarship to Marquette University, graduating with a BS in Finance in 2004.

At Marquette, Mike had a professor who was also a Senior Lender for Port Washington State Bank in Wisconsin. This professor opened Mike’s eyes to how commercial banking could help people and businesses. Mike also “shadowed” the visiting professor professionally … and Mike’s love of banking was sealed. Mike understands the powerful impact the right banking relationship can have. He’s known for how carefully he evaluates opportunities and builds relationships. It’s Mike’s “emotional intelligence” tempered with financial acumen and a desire to see projects move forward and dreams realized.

Mike began his banking career at Pullman Bank (now US Bank) out of college. He joined Lakeside ten years later in 2014 and has been a Lakesider ever since. He has both credit and origination / relationship management experience.

Mike, his wife Jessica, and daughter Hannah live in the southwest suburbs. And yes, Mike still loves to golf.

Third base is called the “hot corner”. The ball comes at you hard & fast and you have to move faster. And then there are instant decisions to make. Do you make the long throw to first? Do you have time to cut down the runner sliding in at second to turn a DP?

Todd Probasco was a third baseman. And dealt successfully with those constant challenges.

Third base is a great analogy for how Todd has approached his twenty-year career in the mortgage industry. He’s always assessing the field and finding ways to help his clients. With impressive speed and accuracy.

He’s been on the banking and the broker side of the mortgage business so he knows exactly how things work. In fact, he won the 2005 Illinois Mortgage Broker of the Year award!Todd joined Lakeside in 2017 to lead our team of Mortgage Loan Consultants … as well as continuing to help his own clients!

Todd grew up in Palos Heights. He’s married, with two grown children. He’s a huge Bears and Sox fan and loves tailgating before the games. If you’re house hunting, re-financing or need a home equity loan, call, email or stop by and see Todd. He’s exactly the mortgage pro you want on YOUR team!
