Job description

Your Opportunity

Elevate Your Career: Build a Lending Business—Not Just a Loan Pipeline

We are seeking an experienced, high-performing Mortgage Loan Officer who is ready to move beyond the traditional MLO role and standard compensation structure. This distinctive partnership opportunity is designed for a motivated professional who wants to generate significant production, establish and lead a successful branch, and serve as the trusted lending advisor to a premier real estate sales team with a consistent flow of buyer and seller business.

This role is an excellent fit for a relationship-driven MLO who believes the future of mortgage lending is integrated, referral-based, and centered on enduring partnerships—not isolated transactions.

You will work closely with an established, PLACE-powered real estate team that regularly produces inbound buyer and seller leads. The team is committed to prompt communication, transparency, and an outstanding client experience. They are looking for a long-term mortgage partner—not a rotating roster of lenders.

You won’t be one lender among many. You’ll be the lender.
