Job description

Orchard Mortgage is an affiliate of Orchard, fully dedicated to offering mortgage services to Orchard’s real estate customers to provide a seamless and delightful home buying transaction. Orchard Mortgage is an innovative environment, with a focus on constant improvement, transparency, and teamwork.

We will provide you with leads from top producing agents in our markets. Your job will be to build excellent relationships with both Orchard Agents and Orchard customers, to win their future loan business through the services and offerings we provide (such as free refinances for life). You are not expected to bring your own leads but are welcome to bring your own leads and relationships as well and offer the same unique products and services we provide.

This is a full time role that will report into the Mortgage Sales Manager. This is a remote position that will be expected to be based in the Greater Denver area and available to attend agent networking events such as Orchard happy hours and agent training once a month.

What You’ll Do Here

• Consult with clients about current needs and financing solutions to help them achieve their financial goals including Orchard Mortgage’s unique offerings such as our Equity Advance loan
• Build great relationships with Orchard’s real estate agents and collaborate with them to create a great home buying experience for our customers
• Be “go to person” for all home financing related needs that our customers or agents have including being the expert on our Equity Advance loan and Move First offering
• Close a high percentage of captive leads and manage pipeline of at least 10-15 loans per month, primarily purchases with some refinances
• Work collaboratively with other teams across the Orchard ecosystem in Real Estate and Title Operations to provide the best customer outcomes
• Support weekend coverage once per month to ensure customers have the support they need even on weekends

Compensation Range: The average full-time fully ramped Loan Officer earns $110-225K per year depending on performance. The structure is a draw against commission with a 3 month ramp period for new hires. The role also comes with benefits and equity in the company.

We’d Love to Hear From You if You Have:

• At least 3+ years experience with lending experience and an active NMLS license or registered (Colorado required)
• Strong consultative sales skills to get our customers the best financial outcome and help them understand the programs available to them
• A passion for customer service and relationship building with keeping both our customers and agents in the loop on what is going on, even if that is after hours or on a weekend.
• Deep knowledge of guidelines pertaining to Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, FHA, VA with the ability to provide high quality pre-approvals/pre-qualifications (bonus if you also are familiar with common non-QM programs and reno/construction loans)
• Technology savvy with the ability to learn and work with new systems especially as the mortgage world progresses. Preference for experience with Blend and Byte (or similar systems).

Orchard is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We provide employment opportunities without regard to age, race, color, ancestry, national origin, religion, disability, sex, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, veteran status, or any other protected status in accordance with applicable law.
