We value innovators, problem solvers, and creative individuals pushing the mortgage industry forward.

About The Role

As a Premier Loan Officer with Zillow Home Loans (ZHL), you’re not just originating mortgages — you’re building a network within the fastest-growing channel in the industry. This role is designed for high-performing, entrepreneurial Loan Officers who thrive on driving results, building influential referral networks, and shaping the future of integrated real estate transactions.

You’ll leverage Zillow’s Premier Agent Network, cutting-edge tools, and unique integration into the customer and agent experience to expand your market presence and outpace industry growth. This is an opportunity to scale your success within Zillow’s ecosystem — where your drive and relationships fuel the rapid expansion of our Premier Channel.

This role is “remote” with restrictions. Your designated remote location is defined as your principal place of residence, which must be physically located within the state listed above, Georgia. You may also elect to spend some time working at a company office. Employment is contingent upon remaining in this location; any future relocation requests will be reviewed by the Company and may be denied based on business need.

Key Responsibilities:

• Originate mortgage loans, guide borrowers through the process, ensure compliance, and provide all vital documentation for underwriting, processing, and funding.
• Build referral relationships with top real estate agents in your market — strengthen existing partnerships and develop new, high-value networks.
• Drive fully integrated transactions, connecting customers, agents, and the loan process through Zillow’s platform.
• Support the rapid expansion of Zillow’s Premier Channel by meeting production targets and outpacing industry benchmarks.
• Achieve production targets through a combination of company-provided leads and self-sourced opportunities from strong partner relationships.
• Use data-driven insights to strategically manage your pipeline, ensuring efficiency and high conversion.
• Deliver a best-in-class customer experience through timely follow-up, transparent communication, and proactive problem solving.
• Stay ahead of market trends, regulations, and loan programs to provide tailored solutions for borrowers and agents.
• Manage leads from Premier Agent partners and cultivate new leads through strong partner relationships.
• Promptly contact borrowers upon lead receipt and follow up after discovery to assess financing readiness and offer personalized support.
• Ensure all transactions comply with applicable laws, regulations, and company guidelines.
• Maintain active licensing, complete required training, and stay current on regulatory changes and loan program knowledge.
• This role involves the collection, storage, and use of voiceprints (records of speech).

In addition to a competitive base pay, employees in this role are eligible for incentive compensation. Actual amounts vary based on experience, performance, and location.

Who you are

• A high-performing Loan Officer with a proven track record of success.
• An entrepreneurial self-starter who thrives in competitive markets and takes ownership of growth.
• Skilled at building deep referral partnerships with top real estate agents.
• Motivated by uncapped earnings and the opportunity to scale your business within Zillow’s ecosystem.
• Resilient, adaptable, and always looking for new ways to win.

Role Requirements:

• 3+ years of purchase mortgage origination experience as an active NMLS Loan Originator with multiple state licenses, or a Loan Originator working under a bank license (required)
• Proven success in handling purchase loans and building referral business with real estate agents.
• Physically located in and working from Georgia.
• Completed the 20-hr SAFE Pre-licensing Education and passed the SAFE Mortgage Loan Originator Test - National Component with Uniform State Content.
• Strong client service orientation and consultative sales skills.
• Excellent interpersonal skills, mortgage process knowledge, and ability to close loans successfully.
