MortgageAdvisorNetwork
is compliant with the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA),
a federal consumer protection statute. You will be paid a flat
fee of $500 regardless of the transaction size. You are paid
for the services that you perform.
RESPA prohibits kickbacks and referral fees among settlement
service providers that could unnecessarily increase the cost
of settlement services to consumers. It is also illegal for
anyone to accept a fee for services if that person has not
actually performed settlement services. RESPA does not prevent
those who actually perform a service in connection with the
mortgage loan or the settlement from being paid for the
reasonable value of their work.
To ensure compliance you must complete our online training
program and assist your clients with at least ten of the
required tasks—things such as counseling on available loan
programs, assisting with the application, and providing
certain disclosures, etc. We provide all the resources you
need to easily assist your clients.
Your
job is to gather the initial loan information and maintain
contact with the buyer. You will be completely supported by
our team of experts who will process, underwrite, and close
the loan. Our automated approval system approves about 75% of
all buyers. For tougher loans, we recommend you continue to
work with a local loan officer that specializes in
hard-to-qualify borrowers or one of our referral sources for
these types of loans.
Mortgage
loans are available nationwide, with the exception of the
following states where we are actively pursuing licensing:
Nevada, New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania.
