As a Loan Specialist, you will help veterans and active-duty service members in the VA home loan process. You will work with one or more Loan Officers and will do most of the typical Loan Officer functions, freeing-up the Loan Officer(s) you support to bring in new business.

Job duties include:

• Educating borrowers on the loan process and product options
  
• Taking loan applications by phone, in-person, or online
  
• Processing loan applications for VA, FHA, USDA, and Conventional loans
  
• Following up on leads who have not applied or have stalled in the process
  
• Issuing pre-approval letters on behalf of the Loan Officer(s) you are supporting

• Assist the Loan Officer with loan status updates to all parties throughout the loan process
  
• Assist the Loan Officer with other tasks as needed

You will be part of our local, top-producing loan team who will give you the training and support you need to succeed.

Compensation will be a combination of a base hourly wage and bonuses paid on every file funded by the Loan Officer or Loan Officers that you support. You will also be compensated for self-sourced leads that fund with the branch from your referral. This is in addition to a solid benefits package for health insurance, matching 401(k), etc.
