About The Position

As a Loan Specialist, you'll be the friendly voice guiding and educating our borrowers on their VA benefit. You'll initiate the first step in the home buying journey and set the stage for a successful partnership. Our marketing team works hard to bring in fresh lead s , so most of the time, you’re calling people who are already interested rather than cold-calling strangers. It’s demanding, for sure, but there’s something really rewarding about knowing you’re helping someone secure their dream home. Don't have a mortgage background? No sweat - this role is an entry level position within our company where mortgage experience is a plus but not a necessity.

We don’t cap your ambition—we reward it. To sweeten the deal, we’re offering a $500 sign-on bonus , and an additional $1000 upon passing your SAFE exam. One important thing— you’d need to be NMLS licensed (but we can help you get that when you start).
