How do I pursue mortgage broker training? Can I work from home?


broker
C asked:


I am considering pursuing work as a mortgage loan broker. I have always been a very aggressive sales person when I worked in that field so I am confident I could do well at it. I am degreed and motivated but do not know where to begin. I’d like to work from home. I already have a home office set up. I have to be licensed in NY and need direction on how to begin. Any professional advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

    would really depend on your states requirements. For instance in the state of Texas you have to hold a real estate license for 18 months before you can become a broker.
    I would look on your states site- usually state insurance commissioner- Those sites will answer all of your questions and you will know what to do and how to do it within minutes.. Hope that helps. Kim

    C,
    candid answer is now isn’t the best time to get into a dying industry with other struggling starving loan brokers.
    u’d be surprised the # of l.b. we have applying daily for work and training.
    in the 80’s the S&L collapse drove most to other fields. u’d be luck to find 1 in 3000 who actually worked in the 80’s today..
    suggest reconsider - read ‘48 days to work ulove’ d.miller see what ur skills would produce better income. robert w
