What We Offer Our Florida Mortgage Branch Managers
Many benefits include...
 |
A Turnkey Solution: Overnight, mortgage bankers in Florida can level the playing field with larger banks. The mortgage banker can still continue as an entrepreneur, while gaining the prestige, support, and power of the larger mortgage bank — Southwest Funding, without the bureaucracy — it's the best of both worlds. The Florida mortgage banker can also choose to bank or broker for each and every mortgage loan. |
|
Multiple Compensation Plans: Many experienced loan officers in mortgage brokerages, banks and credit unions earn only 50–200bps per loan. Southwest Funding offers multiple compensation plans up to 325bps lender paid compensation per loan! The difference in income to a brokerage or loan officer can be dramatic! |
|
Multi-State Licensing: Securing state mortgage licenses independently takes a mortgage broker many months and thousands of dollars. Southwest Funding, on the other hand, already has these licenses in place. This affords an expanded universe of homeowners to serve. With the new SAFE act regulations, licensing can be complicated but Southwest Funding makes it easy. |
|
Broad Product Offerings: With an expansive approved wholesale mortgage lender list and complete in-house product offerings through the Southwest Funding Banking Division, you will never lose a deal to another lender because of a product or program. There is no "first right of refusal" on any loan, you choose the mortgage lender each and every time. We offer FHA, VA, USDA, FNMA, FHMLC and portfolio products that many smaller mortgage brokers do not have the capability to do. |
|
Nondisclosure of YSP's: Not having to disclose yield spread premiums is a major advantage of Southwest Funding versus strictly brokering mortgage loans. But, unlike most mortgage bankers, Southwest Funding still allows you to broker as many loans as you like to our extensive, approved wholesale mortgage lender list, even on FHA loans! |
|
Direct-Lender Status: Everyone likes to deal with a "direct lender." This is true of borrowers and of referral partners. When you choose to work with the Southwest Funding Banking Division as a mortgage banker, your direct lender status will strengthen the relationships with your Realtors, builders, and borrowers. |
|
Compliance: Increasingly, mortgage brokers express that they're sleeping uneasy because of compliance pressures. Southwest Funding has compliance experts on staff to ensure that, not only are file flows compliant and quality-assured, but also that individual Loan Officer and branch licenses are current and maintained. We also ensure that all advertising pieces are compliant in terms of equal housing, annual percentage rates (APR's), licensing, and state disclosures. The new regulations can be a mess to sort through but we have done the work for you! |
|
Accounting and Support Services: Our Accounting department takes the back-office load off of you. This frees time for you to do what you do best — originate. Our KeyTeam is available to answer any question about anything, whatever you need help with. The Accounting department makes sure payroll is on time and that commissions are calculated correctly. |
|
Technology: Loans can be registered and locked online, conditions can be cleared and pipelines monitored around the clock. We are paperless. Our Branch Resource Center has everything you need to be successful. Marketing support, operations, compliance, message board, email, Loan Central and much more. |
I have been a Branch Manager with Southwest Funding since 2003! Prior to joining Southwest Funding, I was a branch Manager with a mortgage net branch company that "said" what they would provide...what they promised and what was delivered was totally different. During my time with Southwest Funding, my experience is that they ALWAYS "say what they are going to" and ALWAYS "do what they say". Payroll is exactly what I expect every time (no surprises) and at all times I am comfortable that my branch office is informed of changes in the industry and in compliance. Our excellent resources and corporate team help me be more successful and I cannot imagine being in this industry and not working for Southwest Funding! The entire organization is TOPS!
Mickey Smith, Branch Manager #621
I have been a branch manager for almost 9 years with SWF. During this time I have seen continual growth, product expansion, improved processes and excellent branch support. SWF has been in front of the mountainous changes our industry has been through for compliance, origination and compensation. I'm very happy to be a part of the SWF family.
