As an MLO, you will guide clients through the home loan process—from consultation to closing—while building and maintaining relationships with borrowers and referral partners.


Job Responsibilities:

  • Consult with Borrowers: Pre-qualify clients, discuss loan options, and collect necessary documentation.

  • Manage Loan Files: Input and monitor files through the Loan Origination System (LOS), ensuring compliance and timely updates.

  • Communicate Effectively: Maintain consistent and proactive communication with clients, realtors, and partners via phone, email, and text.

  • Grow Referral Network: Attend realtor and industry events to expand and maintain your referral base.

This is a 100% remote position, ideal for someone who is confident managing their own day-to-day schedule. While you're empowered to work independently, you may participate in occasional weekly or monthly check-ins with a Branch Manager depending on your location. Earnings potential is significant for those consistently closing loans above minimum production levels (~$750,000/month and up).
