Who we're looking for
We're looking for motivated, coachable people who are ready to build a real career in mortgage — no experience required. You'll be placed with a senior loan officer who will train you on everything from your first client conversation to closing your first loan.
If you're driven, a fast learner, and willing to do what it takes to win, we want to hear from you.
What you'll have here
- Company-provided inbound leads — so you spend more time closing and less time prospecting from scratch
- 1-on-1 mentorship from an experienced loan officer with a proven training system
- Full CRM and LOS infrastructure already built out for you
- A broad product shelf to learn and grow on: Conventional, FHA, VA, Non-QM, Reverse, HELOC, and more
- The flexibility of 1099 with the support of a structured, high-performing team
What you'll do
- Work company-provided leads through calls, texts, and email with professionalism and follow-through
- Learn to structure loan scenarios across a broad product shelf to serve borrowers
- Manage your pipeline through LOS from origination to funding
- Maintain accurate, up-to-date records in our CRM at every stage of the loan lifecycle
What we're looking for
- A relentless work ethic and whatever-it-takes mentality
- The ability to build rapport quickly and make clients feel at ease
- Organized and consistent — you manage a routine and follow through every time
- Fast learner who absorbs feedback and acts on it immediately
- Strong communication skills and a genuine desire to help people
- No mortgage experience required — coachability and drive matter most here
This role is a great fit if you...
Want a steady flow of inbound leads without building your pipeline from nothing
Want 1099 flexibility with the support of a fully built-out infrastructure
Are new to mortgages but bring the work ethic and coachability to grow fast
Want to build a real career — not just a job — in the mortgage industry
