Decent Pay, Not Much Growth

Mortgage loan officer assistant

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Working in commission comes with great pay if you can land the business. The health of the market can also allow for a decent work-life balance. When business is good, there's no better place to be.

Cons

As you may have guessed, when business is bad, life is bad. Commission means meeting strict production quotas, somewhat forcing yourself on people to earn their business, and plenty of uncomfortable networking events. If you don't see yourself as a sales person, a production role will be tough. Loan officers run production teams how they choose to. They can either make your life a breeze or a nightmare. It's a bit of a complex inclusion, but knowledge of market interest rates can make it tough to consciously work with clients sometimes. There are of course reasons for higher interest rates when rates can easily be compared online. More overhead and more teams working on each loan means loans close without unexpected delays, higher rates to make up for it, etc. Imagine an extremely qualified family member applying for a loan. If their file was simple, would you knowingly advise them to proceed if you knew the rate was 0.5%+ higher than the market rate? Also, from a sales perspective, it is incredibly difficult to maintain referral relationships when your offerings are consistently beat.

Thank you for your feedback. Although you’re no longer at Cornerstone, we appreciate your 8 years of service. You’ve highlighted some opportunities and challenges that come with production roles in the current market environment. We’d like to clarify one point: it’s simply not accurate that our rates are consistently above market, as demonstrated by the more than 20,000 families this year that will choose Cornerstone and our affiliated companies to take care of their home loan. We continuously monitor market rates to offer competitive pricing, while at the same time being known as an industry leader in on-time closings and high-value, client-centric service. Your suggestions about providing more guidance in building referral relationships and checking in regularly with teams are valuable. We’re holding quarterly company-wide town halls in response, including our executive leadership traveling to markets outside our Home Office in Houston to visit in person with our Team Members. We’re committed to supporting our Team Members with training, resources, and open communication so that everyone feels equipped to succeed.
