  • Verify borrower information: Cross-check financial documents, employment history, income statements, and credit scores to verify borrower eligibility.
  • Coordinate with underwriters: Liaise with underwriters to clarify documentation or information and ensure the loan meets underwriting guidelines.
  • Communicate with borrowers: Regularly contact borrowers to collect additional required information, explain the loan process, and answer questions.
  • Ensure compliance: Verify that all loans adhere to federal, state, and lender-specific regulations, including legal documentation requirements.
  • Update loan files: Ensure all loan files are complete and updated in the loan processing system throughout the loan process.
  • Order third-party services: Request and review property appraisals, title work, insurance, and other necessary services related to the loan.
  • Follow-up on loan status: Monitor the progress of each loan application, ensuring deadlines are met and keeping loan officers and borrowers informed of any changes or delays.
  • Resolve issues: Work proactively to identify and resolve potential issues or discrepancies that could delay loan approval or closing.
  • Maintain confidentiality: Handle sensitive borrower information with discretion and in compliance with privacy laws and regulations.


Key Skills & Qualifications:

  • Organizational skills: Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple loan files simultaneously.
  • Knowledge of mortgage regulations: Familiarity with mortgage lending laws, FHA/VA loans, and other regulatory requirements.
