What are the responsibilities and job description for the Mortgage Loan Originator (Outside Sales) position at The Mortgage Talent Network?
The Opportunity
This is a rare chance to plant your flag with a well-established federally chartered, community-rooted mortgage bank that gives outside originators the tools, products, and back-office support to compete — and win — in today's purchase-driven market. If you've built a referral network and want a platform that won't slow you down, this role was designed for you. You'll own your pipeline, work your market, and keep the relationships you've spent years earning.
What You'll Do
Develop and maintain a consistent pipeline of residential mortgage business through referral partnerships with real estate agents, builders, financial planners, CPAs, and other centers of influence
Originate conforming, FHA, VA, USDA, jumbo, and portfolio loan products tailored to each borrower's financial profile
Conduct needs-based consultations with prospective borrowers to evaluate loan options, explain program guidelines, and set clear expectations from application through closing
Partner closely with processors, underwriters, and closers to move loans efficiently and protect pull-through rates
Represent the company's brand in your local market through networking events, open houses, realtor office visits, and community engagement
Stay current on agency guidelines, state regulatory requirements, and market conditions to serve as a trusted advisor to both borrowers and referral partners
Maintain full compliance with RESPA, TILA, SAFE Act requirements, and all applicable Texas licensing regulations
Why This Opportunity
This lender operates with a community-bank mindset but carries the product depth and operational firepower you'd expect from a much larger shop — meaning you can close complex deals without hitting a ceiling on what you can offer borrowers. The culture values originators who take ownership and rewards that independence with responsive processing, fast turn times, and leadership that actually picks up the phone. If you're tired of feeling like a number at a big-box lender, this environment will feel like a completely different career.
