Margin Compression

How many times has your compensation been reduced due to “margin compression”?  

Retail mortgage “margin compression” exists at the Branch Manger level and above. As rates move up, Branch Managers can’t make the overrides they want to make on their loan officers, so they reduce YOUR compensation before they reduce theirs. This is why you are forced to sell rates .5% or higher than a Broker. How many times have you heard, “sell service, don’t sell rate”? Well, you can sell both and earn what you are worth as a Broker.

Brokers Have No Control

Retail managers always pitch “Broker’s have no control on their loan files”.  This could not be further from the truth.  Not only do we have access to 10x the Underwriter’s compared to Retail mortgage “in-house” underwriters, but we close faster and have less conditions because we aren’t trying to sell off the loan the minute the clients walks out of Escrow. As the 3rd largest Independent Mortgage Broker in the Nation, we average Clear to close in 14 days or less and are usually .5% or more lower in rate.  Look at the entire system and see for yourself how you can earn what you worth as a Broker.

Never Lose a Transaction Again To Rate

If you are in Retail Mortgage Banking, you have been told over and over, “don’t sell Rate, sell Service”.  The reason you are told that is because the P&L of the company is so bloated with layers of management, office space that is 30-40% used and after everyone else gets paid then there is a little bit left over to pay you 100-125bps.  Do you understand that usually starts around 300-450bps before everyone takes a cut of your transaction?  Let’s do that math, price out a few transactions and see for yourself that you can get paid your worth.
