Advanced Loan Partner Position (LP2)
Are you looking to work alongside leaders in the mortgage industry who will help you grow your career? We’re looking for a full-time Loan Partner 2 (LP2) who will help our applicants get mortgage-ready and support them throughout the loan process. The Loan Partner is responsible for accurately prequalifying home loan applications, issuing and managing quality pre-approval letters, and overseeing the success of every loan in the committed pipeline.
The LP2 will work cohesively with the Loan Officer(s), borrowers, loan processors, underwriters, and third parties to close 95%+ of all loans on time while providing an outstanding experience from application to close. This position requires substantial cash, credit, capacity (income), collateral, communication skills, and the ability to be resourceful.
This position is the "right hand" to assist our Lead Loan Originator in sales and CRM management. It is a remote position; however, most of the clients are in Pacific or Mountain time zones, which requires working those hours. Central time is considered case-by-case.
