How Loan Officers Sell More Without Working More

How Loan Officers Sell More Without Working More

Mortgage volume is improving, but for many loan officers, the job has not become easier. Files require more coordination. Production costs remain high. Support teams are leaner. And too much of the working week is being swallowed by tasks that keep loans moving but do not actually require a loan officer to do them. The numbers make the pressure clear. The cost to produce a loan is now about $10,936, compared with a long-run average of around $7,945. At the same time, purchase business makes up the majority of first mortgages, bringing more follow-up, documentation and coordination with every file.

The result is a capacity problem.

Loan officers are spending valuable hours chasing documents, updating CRMs, scheduling calls, responding to inquiries and trying to keep past clients and referral partners warm. Meanwhile, the work only they can do gets squeezed into whatever time is left.

This white paper shows you how to change that.
